Language Dominion
This is a fun, not-so-typical way to study and learn English through stories, vocabulary review, and unique lessons. Students will listen to stories based on examples of conversations in daily life; students should write AND repeat the answers to the questions so that they continue to improve in their English speaking ability. The course helps students listen to and practice correct pronunciation for vocabulary words. This course uses some strategies and guidance I learned from the Cambridge English Certification (CELTA), but mostly it comes from my years of experience as a language teacher. Students should find interest in the stories and through the language of the stories, I can help them learn small pieces of English – little by little, story by story – until the learner has gained confidence in using English in daily life conversations. The readers and listeners should follow along with the scripts (the comics) and repeat what the characters say. Keep practicing and repeating what different characters say in the story so that the flow of English becomes natural. This course is principally designed to entertain you, but it will help you to gain confidence speaking English as you read along with the videos and express yourself as the characters do. Although my goal is for any English learner to enjoy and gain a lot from the stories and videos, I hope that the busy English student with family responsibilities, the tired student with multiple jobs, and even the confused student with a lot to learn will enjoy watching the comedy and entertainment in English – in a simple way to learn. This is a fun course for students to practice and pretend to act in English (along with the stories) and to develop the speaking skills that will transfer to the real world.
