A Tour to Morrison Academy Taichung

On behalf of the Education Bureau, Principal Syu, Daniel and I went to the Morrison Academy this afternoon to visit Mr. Myburgh, the Elementary/Middle School Principal, and discussed some future cooperation plans between both parties in cultural and English teaching exchange. After briefing him on how the English Advisory Group of Taichung City promotes English teachers’ professional development, he immediately recommended some of the teachers there based on their expertise to do teaching demonstrations, like cooperative learning, flipped classroom and so on, for our visit next time as the first step. Then, Judy kindly gave us a campus tour and introduced some teachers for us as well. As the main event organizer, I especially would like to tap into resources from this school for some potential workshops.

Receiving the event planner’s recognition right after my presentation, I got invited to do another one, but I volunteered to do a teaching demonstration instead, which really helps me put recent bureaucracy and red tape behind and move on with what I really love to do. 

Cooperative Learning Workshop at TCJH

Catering to the teachers’ need, I focused on more authentic application in the classroom and shared some valuable learning experience along the way. Nothing can motivate me more than being able to speak English at a workshop and showcase what makes me different from others. Also, I’m going to do a teaching demonstration with students I’ve never met before at the very school in three weeks, which is exactly the main driving force to keep me going no matter what because I get to push myself out of comfort zone. This time it’ll be much more challenging, but I’m really looking forward to it.

Who am I fooling?

Hi Simon,

Thanks for your prompt reply. I can see you've incorporated some important features from both links I sent to you. They will definitely serve as very good topics for discussion, providing some food for thought for the teachers to really reflect on why new approaches like cooperative learning, alternative assessment, differentiated teaching and so on are the key to success.
