Letters from '09 Teachers

2010 HUST Summer Session
The following schedule, based upon our 2009 one, is provided as an example only. The 2010 program may differ somewhat.

I. Students

Class size: 24 - 32 students per class

Student levels:

The majority: medium-level first-year undergraduate or graduate students who are comparatively strong in listening but weak in speaking.

II. Duration:

July 5 - July 23 (Saturdays and Sundays excluded)

Morning: 8:30 ~ 11:40 (20-min-break in between)

Afternoon: 13:30 ~ 16:30 (20-min-break in between)

III. Teaching arrangements:

1. Lessons:

Teachers work in pairs, taking care of two classes. For example,

Teacher 1 8:30 ~ 11:40 Class 1
1:30 ~ 4:30 Class 2
Teacher 2 8:30 ~ 11:40 Class 2
1:30 ~ 4:30 Class 1

* For each day one teacher should prepare 160-minute-long lesson and use it twice (once in the morning & once in the afternoon). Altogether there are 14 days of such regular lessons. The last day is for the students' assessment.

* Teachers are encouraged to base the lessons on freely chosen materials. There is also a textbook called Let's Talk 2 by Leo Jones published by Cambridge University Press for the teachers to use as reference. (The students have the book.) The book is available as soon as the teachers arrive.

* CD attached to the Teacher's Manual contains all the recordings of the book, whereas that of the Student's Book contains only SELF-STUDY exercises marked with a star.

* Full-length entertainment-type videos are not allowed during the lessons. Short clips having to do directly with lesson materials are fine to use.


2. Evenings
At least once a week teachers are free either to join the English Corner or to join the students' movie classes.

V. Classrooms:

All the classrooms are equipped with air-conditioning, computers, CD players and computer projectors. If the teacher has problems in handling the equipment, please consult the TA.Additional text information:
