There are various kinds of English education center such as institutes, academies and online schools in the world.
However, it’s my first time to hear the concept of teaching method by using elderly. It is happening in Brazil these days.
The English school in Brazil called ‘CNA Language School' had signed a contract with a nursing homes in U.S, and started video chatting so the students in Brazil and the elderly in U.S can talk each another.
Brazilian students can improve English skill through communication with the elderly. Conversely, retired American elderly who are living lonely life can be excellent speaking teachers.
Students can sign up on the homepage and then choose available elderly at that time and communicate with them.
The manager will set a topic first for video chatting and they would talk about the topic. The conversation can be general and personal as long as it is related to the topic.
Brazil posted a video clip on youtube in May. Even though they have different nationalities, it seems that they are pretty close because they were saying "I like you, I love you' in the video.
This is only a video chatting through a machine, but their conversation feels so touching while they talk and get to know each other better.
What if there are the same online English School in Korea?
Like this case, if they communicate with open minded, anyone can be friends regardless of nationality, race, prejudice and discrimination.
With all my heart, I hope that everyone becomes a friend to each other and live in peace and lovewithoutwar,argumentandgrief.
