大连市高新园区期中改编"Welcome to
English drama class! Today, we are going to play
Cinderella!" said Lin Xiao,one of the volunteer
teachers from Shenzhen University.In front of her,
there were 45 fifth graders in village schools
listening excitedly.
The Volunteer Teaching Program was set up
in 2021. For four years, volunteers like Lin have
spent their summers teaching in Shangbao Village,
Ganzhou City. As the captain, Lin arrived in
Ganzhou with her team on 10 July,2023.Although
the living conditions were terrible,she believed the
experience was valuable in making the lives of
local students better.
During the teaching, Lin found that students
in village schools are often short of interest in
English because of few materials 材料 and
chances to use the language. To increase their
interest in English, Lin and her team planned
special English drama courses to encourage
children to express themselves bravely."It is better
for village students to learn English through acting
because they will have more fun," Lin explained.
During rehearsals, Lin helped the children
understand the storyline, practise words over and
over again, and build teamwork among them. She
discovered a big change in the students' attitudes
态度 now, with many becoming interested in
English.
One summer may not bring much change to
the children, but Lin hopes one summer's hard
work can at least make a difference to China's
countryside education.
