An informal English class
For the last four years, my wife Anne and I have taken classes in two local primary schools, teaching the kids English in as amusing way as possible.
They love it – and so do we. In addition to sessions where we interact with the kids using the white board, we use various word games, colouring in drawings, songs and even dances.
We make no attempt to teach them formal English and leave this up to their academic tutors.
