Xayadeth Summer School Classes
It is the summer holiday here in Laos but we are still busy
teaching English to eager students! Currently, we are teaching 4 summer school
classes at Xayadeth College. These classes are for any children between the
ages of 5 and 20 years old who would like to learn English over their school
break. The classes begin at 8:30 in the morning and are two hours long. Two
hours may seem like a long time but they fly by with lots of practice activities,
games, 1 short break and having entertaining teachers. Each class has 2 native
speakers who are the GVI volunteers from around the world. Each class also has
a Lao teacher who helps with translation and assisting the volunteer teachers
in checking book work and making lesson plans. Today one of the classes sang
“Head, Shoulders, Knees and Toes” while learning body parts. Another class was
working on the sounds of the alphabet while the more advanced classes learned
about opposites and what different homes around the world look like. These
Xayadeth summer school classes will last another 2 months and then the
university students will return for another busy school year!
