“Fun in the Classroom” Teacher Training Camp

On Saturday, Group 126 TCCS volunteers put on “Fun in the Classroom” Teacher Training Camp for about 100 local English teachers at Wat Dao School. It was a half-day camp featuring classes on how to make reading, writing, speaking, listening more fun and interactive, along with how to develop new materials. By all accounts it was a great success. John Carlson was the MC and he did a great job even though he had the flu. And I was the coordinator handling logistics for the camp – otherwise known as the “problem solver”. The whole event was a great learning opportunity.
