Lesson Pack Details

This is a 6-lesson pack. You will be issued 5 “coupons” when the first request is confirmed. You will be able to use these coupons for subsequent requests in the pack. Please note that all requests related to this pack must be taken within 90 days of the first lesson date.

Lessons should generally be booked chronologically, meaning that the second lesson should be booked after the first, and so on.

Description

Step 1: An article will be selected before the class (you may choose your own article too)
 
Step 2: A link to the article will be sent to you on the chat before the class (usually after the previous class) so that you would have some time to prepare by reading through the article and get familiar with it. 

Step 3: Identify the words you are not familiar with. You may want to write down those words in your notebook as a reminder.

Step 3: During the lesson, I will ask you to read the article (or just a portion, if the article is too long). We will then identify the keywords and keyphrases. If there are any unfamiliar words, we would clarify their meaning. Finally, we will have a discussion on the article. Some questions may be prepared beforehand in order to keep the discussion flowing.

Depending on your circumstances, I may assign homework as revision for you to practice writing as well. The homework should not take more than 15 minutes to complete.

Skills practiced:
We will be focusing on a few skills in the lesson such as Reading, Speaking and Listening (when we discuss the article) and Writing (I will assign a revision homework that would not take more than 15 minutes)
