ENGLISH CLUB

An English Club is a place for language learners to use English in a casual setting. Practicing your skills in the classroom is important, but it is not like real life. In the classroom, you often focus on one skill and one item (for example grammar – future tense).In an English Club, you get a chance to practice many different skills in a setting that is more like real life. Though your English teacher understands your English, your English Club friends will require you to speak more clearly and listen more carefully

  • To provide a recreational and consolidating opportunity for students to learn and practice English

  • To give vent to students’ creative talents
  • Provide an encouraging atmosphere for students to express personal views about whatever they choose
