About the Teacher & the Course
Welcome

About
the Instructor:
Hello, my
name is Chris (크리스), and I will be your
instructor for this course. I came to Korea from Canada in 2002, and I have
been teaching English for the last 12
years.
I live
with my pretty wife and our wonderful
little sons in our apartment close to Youngsan University. I enjoy hiking,
traveling, and meeting my friends in Busan. My wife likes to play tennis and
watch movies. Sometimes we travel together to other countries and interesting
places.
About
the Course:
You will
get chances to speak to your classmates and your teacher in English. There will
be activities, games, conversations, and role plays to help you improve your
speaking and pronunciation.
Your attitude is the most important
thing in this course. You can only learn to speak by speaking, loud and often!
As you practice speaking, you will become more confident. Don’t worry too much about grammar and sentence structure – mistakes are natural!
I hope you will do your best. Be here on time, every class. Read ahead in the textbook before class. Keep your notes neatly organized. Ask questions. Help your classmates. If you can do all of these things, you will get a great score in this course!
