Friends Not Foes

Please note that for all our trips, students are expected to walk in pairs for safety and guide against isolation. We shall be organizing our students into pairs after classes. We intend to accommodate your demands but be aware that we want you to relate with students from other countries as well if any.
Time To Share
Posted Sep. 22, 2018
You have been learning for a week and it is that time to share. Some of you will stand in front of the class to share the communication skills you have acquired so far. We know some students have the tendency to be nervous so please control your reactions throughout the conversations. It is no doubt you're ready to express yourself in English and we look forward to your wonderful speeches so, don't be afraid and give it your best.
