Are you teaching English as a career, or offering your services voluntarily to assist others in disadvantaged situations learn the language? Why not use a translator as we in Lumiere English Academy have done with great success! I have recently returned from a field trip where Congolese children speaking French were struggling to learn English. I brought a translator to the teacher, and within minutes the children were laughing delightedly as they were able to translate French into English, assisting their studies. The teacher was laughing no less delightedly as she was able to translate words from English into French.
Lumiere English Academy has been offering free classes online and telephonically since January 2011 with great success. However, to be honest with you, so many people are in need of free lessons that our Academy is struggling to meet the demand. In the spirit of Lumiere, if you are a teacher of English, would you consider giving free English lessons to those in disadvantaged areas? There are many in need of this wonderful gift.
Why not consider becoming an online English school offering a number of free English lessons weekly? It is easy to give telephonic or online lessons to someone in another country. In squatter camps, contact can be made with a principal/ minister/ social worker/ volunteer of honest reputation and good heart, and a second hand computer can be fundraised for or donated to that person. A generator or link to electricity can be organised, and lessons be made available in that way. Another option is to tape audio classes or organise webinars and place them online. Or your can burn CD's of your English lessons and then post them to outlying areas, with a tape recorder and batteries. The wonderful challenge of teaching the great medium of English is to find a way to make classes available to outlying areas.
