How to hold a Successful English Corner ?

2392 views. 2011-11-24 17:27 |

Haven't written any articles here for long time .
Time flies ! I 've been here for about 2 years . Now I have graduated and working as a overseas sales representative in a big home furniture company . But will never be a student any more . Today is Thanksgiving Day . Thank you , Dio English . Thank you all my friends here . Thank you for all .
 
So far so good . Everything runs well and I enjoy my work . I work in the Overseas Sales Department . Recently , we will hold an English Corner every Sunday afternoon , and everyone in my department should join it .  Could you ask you , my dear friends here , to do me a favor ? Do you have any good ideas for how to hold a successful English Corner , which everyone can enjoy it and enjoy it ? The main purpose for the activity is to make any one of us can speak English fluently and do more practice . As this is held in the company , but not at school , I think there may be some difference between the both . 
 
 Last week , we tried a new method to make atmosphere to be good , and it did work . We just held the English Corner like some entertainment games on the TV shows . Just dividing people into two groups and make a competition . ---- ( Guess the right words in prescribed time by the tips or expressions the other people shows . ) Which groups guess the most words in less time , then who wins the game . This was a successful try to make the English Corner interesting .
 
But the styles for everyone who helds the English Corner should be different from one to another . So far , I don't have any ideas for how to make everyone can enjoy my forms . Do you have any good ideas ?  If yes , please write down your opinions . Thank you every much .

English corner is good for those extroverts, but your work, I guess, is to push everyone in your team to take advantage of this activity. so it would be better you set up a certain scenario or topic in advance so that everyone has to take a role. If possible, announce the scenario one or two day earlier so that you team members can get prepared.

If you can guess stuff(the physical object), why don't you guess people(the ones you're working with)?

A competition might do. U should list the prizes to attract everyone into it. Good luck.
