ENGLISH LANGUAGE PROGRAM
Professionally performed plays combined with skillfully led interactive exercises and discussions promote a relaxed and encouraging learning environment in which students are eager to communicate in English without the usual fear of making mistakes.
Successful communication with the actors, makes students aware of their developing language skills, increasing their feelings of self-esteem and language confidence.
HOW WE WORK
Class Size
Performances are staged in a normal classroom with the desks moved to the back of the room and the chairs set up in rows.
Audience size, 50 or less.
​
Space
A small unit of actors perform the plays and lead the interactive exercises and discussions from the front.
No special room for costume changes is needed.
Our backstage is just outside the entrance to the classroom.
​
Themes
Students will more readily involve themselves and actively participate when the subject matter is relevant.
