Submitted 2019-04-01 07:01:01 The traditional student language vacation.

Traditionally Wholesale NFL Jerseys Cheap , Students are sent in groups to a foreign country. They stay in dorms as a group where there can be anything from twenty to a few hundred students. The daily schedule is normally English Classes in the morning and some sporting activities in the afternoon. The typical duration is 2 weeks The experience is great fun for children teenagers, however, there is a limited benefit to improving their English.

The challenge with this approach is that students are surrounded by children of the same nationality for the duration of the stay.

The impact of this is as follows:

?They will revert to talking their native language as it is easier to converse in that way

?They have no opportunity to practice what they are learning in the English lessons

?No opportunity to practice conversational English with people who speak English as their first language
The end result is that opportunity to improve English from being in another country will have been missed. In addition, they do not get to experience what normal life or culture is like in the country they are visiting.

The new language vacation approach - Total Language Immersion

The more recent approach to Language travel and improving a child''s English or second language is through total language immersion. The approach of total language immersion has been fine-tuned and adopted by hebe Adventures. It is a completely different approach to what is outlined above.

What we have found, is that in many cases international students have been studying English from a young age. There general level of English is very good and in essence Wholesale NFL Jerseys Online , what is required is an environment where they have to practice speaking English.

Total Language Immersion puts the student in an environment where they live life as a local, living with a host family and attending camps schools work placement that is principally attended by local children teenagers.

Private English lessons can also be provided if required and the learnings from these lessons can be applied immediately with their host family or in the summer camps.


With this approach they get 3 key benefits over the traditional approach:

?Because they living with a local host family that are not fluent in the students'' first language it is an environment where they have to speak English

?The camps they attend are for local children, therefore, they have to practice their English while they are attending camp.

?Living with a host family and being part of the family, immerses the student in family life Wholesale NFL Jerseys Free Shipping , outing, sports etc. They get to experience the culture of the country and what daily life is like.

Overall it is a much more complete and rewarding experience and very advantageous from improving their conversational English. They also make new often life long friends in another country.

"I have a lovehate relationship with PowerPoint. In the right hands, it''s a great presentation tool. In the wrong hands (and unfortunately, most usage falls into this category) we are cloning generations of boring slide shows narrated by speakers we barely notice." - Debbie Bailey

Ah, the good old days. For me Wholesale NFL Jerseys From China , those were the days before PowerPoint slide shows became the norm for virtually every business presentation given in corporate America. I fondly remember the days when presenters spoke passionately about a subject near and dear to their heart without having to display every single thought on a slide. I often reminisce back to the time when 80 slides for a 20 minute presentation was NOT the standard, when presenters weren''t just slide narrators, when preparing for a presentation meant more than putting together your slide show.

Now don''t get me wrong, I know the advantages of using a few good slides, however Wholesale NFL Jerseys China , I also know that too much of a good thing is, well, BAD. I subscribe to Bill Wheless'' philosophy about PowerPoint "It''s like alcohol in the hands of a drunk. What we need is moderation." Somehow, we must learn to use, but not abuse Wholesale NFL Jerseys , slides. If we don''t, we risk looking and sounding like every other boring business presenter. Worst of all, we become forgettable.

Think about the last presenter who strongly affected you. More than likely that presenter used very few, if any, slides. The most memorable presenters rely on their delivery style to make their point Wholesale Jerseys Cheap , rather than a well designed slide deck.

When I first began teaching presentation skills more than 20 years ago, I struggled to convince presenters to incorporate the use of visual aids. My how the world has changed.

Today, convincing presenters to rely less on their slides and more on their dynamic communication skills is even harder. It''s almost as if presenters believe that all it takes to deliver a successful presentation is a good slide deck. Unfortunately, when asked to prepare a presentation, presenters spend the vast majority of their time working on their slides Wholesale Jerseys Online , rather than on perfecting their delivery style.

Consider for a moment why political candidates and presidents DON''T use slides. My guess is, they don''t want to divert any attention away from themselves. They understand what Roger Ailes, author of the famous book "You Are the Message" has known for quite some time. "For those who want to succeed, there is only one secret. YOU ARE THE MESSAGE."

Generally, here''s what happens when you overuse slides:

1. Your slides lose their ability to make an impact- Essentially Wholesale Jerseys Free Shipping , slides.
