Andong Seobu Elementary School, visiting Andong English Village
During April, foreigners teaching English in Andong at Andong English Village visited 6th-grade students at Andong’s Seobu Elementary School to provide them with more natural English exposure.
The Andong English Village Visiting Class is a program operated to ‘provide specialized programs that contribute to nurturing global talents and bridging the educational gap and improving English communication skills’.
This visiting class will be conducted as a 17-hour program over three days, and all classes will be conducted in English. Over the three days, students will be able to meet their needs in a variety of situations, including scenarios involving music, Monopoly, library, cooking, restaurant, police station, art, coding, airplane, grocery store, court, auction, science fiction, travel, home, hospital, hairdresser, post office, etc.
A 6th-grade student said, “I think I will be able to learn English with a native English teacher for these threee days through activities that fit various situations, so my interest and confidence in English will increase.”
Principal Oh-Chu Kwon said, “It is unfortunate that students cannot directly go to Andong English Village due to COVID-19 and develop their English communication skills through good facilities and programs, but students can develop their interest in English and learn it through various English experiential learning activities with native English teachers in Korea for three days. I hope that the kids will develop their confidence and grow into global leaders.”
