Special RTD with Highschool Students

May 11, 2006 - Teenage Life After School

Whenny, a frequent RTD Attendee, had the initiative to hold a special Roundtable Discussion for her students. It was a chance for the highschool students studying in her Language Center to practice their English with native speakers. The topic chosen was: "Teenage Life Outside Schools".

RELO Damon Anderson and ELF Coord Mike McCoy patiently encouraged the students to talk. It was hard at the beginning, but after a while the students started to melt, and they were brave to say a word or two.




Teenage life after school is similar. They spend their time doing sports or their hoobies. The culture of going out with their friends are also similar. They have to ask permission from their parents, and they have a certain curvew to follow.

Hope the discussion really gave those students encouragement to learn and practice their English.
