City English Class (Something like: English Conversational Class in two nearby univeristies)

Discussion Topics: More general – educational, adjustment to HK society, etc.
Class Format:
Through practicing conversational English, issues relevant to students’ lives are discussed, e.g. family relationships between parent-child and siblings, vocational choice, dating relationship, friendship, societal problems, etc.
We share fun activities, such as Moon Festival, hiking, making Chinese dumpling, eating Cantonese “dimsum.”
The Teachers:
