A lot of what we do here is pretty revolutionary in terms of educational concepts. We focus a lot on student centered learning, instead of the traditional teacher speaking, everyone listening method.
We have been training teachers in this way for a few years now and it has attracted national attention. The government wants to implement some of our Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages (TESOL) strategies on a nationwide scale. However, first much research must be done to determine the best strategies to incorporate TESOL into the classroom among myriad other complications. To solve these problems, ESEC founder Danny Yu is writing the definitive text on how to transform the traditional teacher centered classroom to a much more student friendly (ie not boring) classroom regardless of economic or geographic situation. So how does this involve me?
I get to do the research.
and have my name on the book :)
