Hello! I can be an assistant teacher - intermediate or beginners - this Saturday, x Anna
Hello. I'll happily be a assistant teacher for the beginners. If no one else volunteers I can plan something as I have loots of beginner resources at work, but as it's my first time at Common Conversation I'd rather see how it all works first. I'll help set up but have to leave at 4. Catherine.
so, having a few problems with this IT so last message was a test... So I'm happy to take the main class again on the 29th, but don't mind just helping out if someone else wants to take it instead.
Liv/Liz: last Saturday we did adverbs of frequency (recap) and the first 3 or 4 pges of unit 2, then some pronunciation work on the sounds 'or'(war) and 'eurgh'(girl). I've still got the materials so let me know either way, wouldya? Have good 'n, English fans, and see you all on Saturday. alan lad
This is to give you an idea of what the different volunteer roles involve (but these are by no means set in stone!)
Advanced class planner/teacher:
Intermediate class planner/teacher:
Beginners class planner/teacher:
Teaching assistants:
Key holder opening up: You need a key for the Common Place. You need to arrive by 12pm and unlock the front doors and the back fire exit. Maybe also be the one to make sure there is veg or go to the market if there isn't?
Key holder closing: Make sure all the washing up is done, that chairs and tables are arranged neatly, that all resources from the lesson are put away, that everything is switched off and there is no one left in the building. Then lock up. Often there might be another group using the building afterwards so just make sure they have a key to close after themselves etc.
Childcare volunteer: Take care of the kids, play games with them or make sure they're happy on the computers. Try to keep them busy and not bothering their parents!
