English Conversation Class 2022

In order to improve communication skills for students majoring in English, Department of English, School of Foreign Languages, Thai Nguyen University (SFL-TNU) has collaborated with experts from Hawaii Pacific University (HPU) to organize English Conversation Class from March 19th, 2022 to April 24th, 2022.

From Hawaii Pacific University, there are Ms. Jean Kirschenmann and 10 volunteers currently studying bachelor’s degree and master’s degree in English teaching methodology at HPU. From SFL-TNU, lecturers of Department of English, and 270 students majoring in English participate in the class.

The class is organized with the aim of improving confidence and fluency in English communication for students majoring in English at TNU-SFL. This is also an opportunity for students and graduate students at HPU to participate in communication activities, experience as teachers and observe communication activities to improve fluency.

Classes are held online, at each session students participate in small study groups with the guidance of volunteers. Communication topics are diverse from self-introduction, description of objects, interests to cultural topics of Vietnam in general and Thai Nguyen province in particular.

The class is a great experience for the students as well as the volunteers of HPU. With the results achieved through this class, in the coming time, the Department of English, TNU-SFL will continue to coordinate with HPU to deploy the class to a large number of English majors at TNU-SFL.
