Corporate Training

I start a corporate training class this evening. I will be going to Timken, an American ball-bearing company, in Wuxi, China to teach about 15 students. It is a much bigger class than I am used to so I will have to emphasize group activities to increase student participation.

Our school is slowly evolving from catering to individual clients to corporate clients. We have to do what the market dictates. It is good for me to work with a group over a period of time. In the school, I see students on a too infrequent basis to really assess how much their English has improved. Having a group for three months will test my English teaching abilities.
