Here they are. A teacher's delight.
For the past week, we have been working with the students from CAMT, the faculty of Communications and Media Technology of Chiang Mai University. We had previously selected 12 of them out of a potential 55 candidates to travel to Montreal and Toronto, Canada.
They have been a pure pleasure : intelligent, industrious and with a wonderful sense of humour. With them, we worked to improve their English through their knowledge of Canada (yes, there is more to this great country other than Niagara 'Water'falls and polar bears and no, it is unlikely that there will be snow in May) and'survival English' or how to get by in certain situations through games and role play.
They were asked to make presentations and they came up trumps with excellent research and a good knowledge of the use of IT.
Despite the fact that it was the first week of their summer break and they still had the aftertaste of exams, they were on time and keen to learn each new day.
Thank you to you all. Have a good rest before your new adventure begins.
Thank you for being you.
Mrs. Stafford and Mrs. Morrison
