More than 40 Pattaya English teachers leaned how to implement a new
Israel-based language-learning program designed for elementary school-age
children.
The 45 Prathom 1-6 teachers began or continued training in the “My First
English Adventure” curriculum developed by Israeli educator Yael Bejarano
March 8. The program is a story-based program designed for teaching English
as a Foreign Language to young learners in their first years of learning
English.
Sirina Khainongsuang, franchisee for My First English Adventure in Thailand,
led a group of instructors in training the teachers using specially designed
media tools.
The teacher-training course was designed to impart as much knowledge as
possible through usage of teacher’s kits, flash cards, posters, pictures,
books and DVDs. Audio CDs offer examples of proper pronunciation.
The course focused on better understating, memorization, understanding and
increase confidence for students according to theories on learning language.
