S. Korea adding more English villages 韩国:多所英语教育中心项目启动 GEOJE English Village, an English immersion camp in Gyeongsang Province, South Korea, will hold an opening ceremony on July 2. This year, the village plans to teach about 2,700 elementary school students and 2,400 middle school students. This means that, Herald Media, publisher of The Korea Herald, is now running five English Villages across the nation. In addition to the English villages, the Jeju Free International City Development Center will build a global education city on the southern island of Jeju. The education-based urban development project is aimed at providing world-class education in English. UK teachers trained to spot dyslexia 英国:政府培训教师帮助学生克服诵读困难 THE British government has announced a ￡10 million ($16 million) package to train 4,000 special dyslexia teachers over the next two years. The money will go towards supporting parents and schools and will pay for the training of special dyslexia teachers. The move follows a review of how schools can identify children with dyslexia by the education expert Sir Jim Rose, who said all schools and teachers should have up-to-date information about literacy difficulties so they can adjust their teaching style. The education secretary has accepted Rose’s recommendations and commissioned further guidance and training on literacy difficulties. Most Malaysians back English certificate 马来西亚:多数民众支持教育文凭英语考试 THE Malaysian Education Ministry has announced that about 80 percent of the public feedback is in support of English as a must-pass subject for the Sijil Pelajaran Malaysia (SPM), or Malaysian Certificate of Education. The Deputy Education Minister Datuk Dr Wee Ka Siong pointed out that English language teachers were fluent in verbal communication but lacked the required skills to teach students correct grammar and sentence structure. This, he said, was one of the reasons why such teachers were not ready to take up the challenge. |  |
