Suggested answers
First of all, you say that there are only
native teachers, but my class has one
Vietnamese teacher and two native
teachers. You also say that each class
has no more than 20 students but there
are over 30 students in my class. In the
advertisement, you say we can have
books and cassette tapes free of charge
but in fact we had to pay for them. To
make the matter worse, the classroom
is not air-conditioned. That is quite
different from the advertisement.
Finally, what I do not like most about
your centre is the time. The class time
is not the same as what the
advertisement says. Classes not only
start late but also finish early.
- Exchange the task, correct their
friends’ task.
- Take notes.
