An innovative new method for teaching English in the classroom.

Dynamic English Lab

" The Dynamic English Lab is an entirely new concept, designed to make the learning process exciting, original and, most importantly, enjoyable. It is based on my experience as a teacher of English as well as over 15 years of experience as a performer and theatre tutor.

Part English lesson, part performance and part theatre workshop, the Dynamic English Lab is a creative and playful environment where the students are compelled to use their intellect and reasoning, helping each other in an atmosphere where mistakes result in amusement rather than embarrassment and a sense of failure.

Thus the students learn faster and more effectively from their mistakes and are motivated to expand their vocabulary through intelligent exploration of the language.

Participants are eased into the process, first being encouraged to use the vocabulary that they already know.

The next step is to present the students with prepared scripts containing language specifically designed for their level. Through reading and rehearsing with these scripts they begin to solidify their knowledge-base and expand it thanks to the carefully chosen language used in the scripts.

The blackboard is ever-present throughout the process and the focus is always on learning and improving the students' grasp of the English language. The theatrical material never takes precedence as errors are discussed and explained as scenes develop so that the students truly understand the language thanks to the realistic context in which they are using it.
