The Importance of a Strong Foundation
As with any skill, learning a new language is heavily reliant on having a strong foundation. At Shanghai New Oriental English, we place a strong emphasis on building a strong foundation in grammar, vocabulary, reading, and writing skills. Our experienced teachers work to create engaging lessons that ensure students have a thorough understanding of the basics, which is essential for further language acquisition. We use a variety of teaching methods and resources, from in-class activities and assignments to self-study materials and online resources, to provide students with a comprehensive learning experience.Developing Listening and Speaking Proficiency
One of the most important aspects of language acquisition is developing proficiency in listening and speaking. Our teachers understand the importance of providing opportunities for students to practice these skills in the classroom. Through class discussions, debate sessions, and other interactive activities, students are encouraged to use the language they are learning in a meaningful way. Additionally, we incorporate multimedia resources such as TED Talks and podcasts to expose our students to a variety of accents and speaking styles. This approach helps students to develop natural-sounding pronunciation and to understand different speakers more easily.Building Confidence and Fluency
Confidence and fluency in a new language come with practice and exposure. At Shanghai New Oriental English, we offer a variety of opportunities for students to gain confidence in their language abilities in both the classroom and the real world. Our teachers encourage students to participate in activities such as language exchange events and volunteer opportunities where they can use the language they are learning to communicate with native speakers. We also offer tailor-made courses for adults who need English for specific purposes, such as business, academic, or travel. By focusing on real-life scenarios and providing personalized instruction, we help our students feel confident using the language in any situation.Conclusion
