Features: Monotonous Chinese instruction was a typical educational feature of the last century. Bilingual teaching has emerged in response to the demands of the new century. English is a communication tool. Mastering classroom English flexibly allows students to express their thoughts accurately in class and engage in effective communication with native-speaking teachers. This is one of the joys of learning English—classrooms are originally the training ground for students to practice English!
The heartfelt experience of international students: Unable to understand the teacher's instructions (poor listening skills); unable to express themselves well, resorting to writing paragraphs (poor speaking skills, lacking mastery of basic vocabulary); struggling to keep up with the teacher's pace; consistently ranking or in exams, unable to earn even one credit by the end of the semester. It's no wonder this reality is so frustrating. In fact, students who haven't studied abroad shouldn't rejoice too soon—such things might happen to them too.
This book is a guide designed to help teachers and students improve their interactive English skills in the classroom. It is primarily organized by the chronological sequence of classroom time, the content of lessons, and the communication between teachers and students. The content covers pre-class greetings, in-class questions, classroom activities, content explanations, quizzes and exams, and classroom assignments, as well as post-class communication between teachers and students, along with real-life examples of American classroom teaching. Functionally, they can be categorized as quotation materials, teaching materials, and teacher-student life materials. Structurally, they include practical dialogues and selected example sentences.
The book is well-organized, with a logical structure and comprehensive content, serving as a reference for teachers and students to enhance their classroom conversational and interactive abilities. It is not only a guide for English instructors but also helps students better grasp classroom content and communicate more effectively with teachers.
