Each week, the teacher will assign an article (or a video, audio ...) for students to prepare. In class, the teacher will be leading discussions, asking questions while also giving students feedback and corrections. Some teachers are selecting articles from big international publishers, while the others are using movie clips, Netflix shows and podcasts.

What you will learn

Students can build their confidence in speaking English, gain practice in expressing their opinions in English, deal with differences of opinion in a friendly way, and learn about interesting world affairs.

Each class will focus on one article about an interesting topic. Students will be sent the article before the class, giving them the opportunity to prepare questions and comments, and to think about their opinions.

During the classes we will spend some time answering questions and checking understanding, before moving on to discussing the topics in greater detail. Discussions will develop from one-to-one, to small groups, and whole class debates.
