"Whoever teaches learns in the act of teaching, and whoever learns teaches in the act of learning." —Paulo Freire
The purpose of this summer camp :
Students :
We hope by talking to them in English, they could get used to having a conversation in English and not fear the prospect of talking to a foreigner.
We teach them how to read a book, film it, and show them the vidoe of them reading. By doing this, we hope to show them that they have the ability to read a English book.
We play English educational games. For example : Hangman, London Bridge is Falling down, Simon Says, etc. We hope by playing these games we can improve their vocabulary and simple sentences.
Volunteers:
