In parent-child English class, Mr. Hu, a foreign teacher, is teaching students to dance while learning English songs.

Last week, the orange class had two classes on Fridays and Saturdays, one was a parent-child English class for foreign teachers, and the other was a hand-brewing coffee lesson taught by Starbucks baristas. Although the contents of the two classes are different, the feelings of readers after class are the same: like! Everyone said that if there is a similar course next time, they should sign up for it.

Foreign teachers hand out candy

Skipping after parent-child English class

"it's the first time to get in touch with a foreign teacher with a child." Jiang Yi's mother said, "the teacher is very interesting and attracts the child firmly." Jiang Yi, a fourth-grade student at Xinhua Primary School in Kecheng District, signed up for the orange class with several friends in the class. As soon as he entered the classroom, the foreign teacher gave everyone a circle of candy, which surprised Xiao Jiang. The students were able to eat and listen to the class at the same time.

On the evening of May 12th, Orange Class held a parent-child English class at Maxi English on the 19th floor of Xingang Building, West District of Qucheng. The foreign teacher in the class is Smantha Hubner, whose Chinese name is Hu Suoya. Mr. Hu is an emissary of the AYC program in Zhejiang Province (American Youth Teaching Ambassador Program). He currently teaches in Quzhou No.1 Middle School. Miss Hu is enthusiastic about public welfare. When she heard about the orange class, she attended.

Twelve students and their mothers attended the orange class. Teacher Hu is cheerful and humorous, which leaves a deep impression on everyone. The students wrote greeting cards for their mothers, learned to express their love for their mothers in English, sang and danced with Mr. Hu, and performed English songs for their mothers.

Fan Jiarong participated in our orange relay two years ago (delivering New year's goods to empty nesters). She recognized the reporter from the thoughtful studio and greeted us warmly. In this orange class, Miss Hu gave Fan Jiarong an English name. She was very happy. Xiao Fan said that she is a small fan of the thoughtful studio, and the next time there is a suitable public welfare activity, she will come to participate with her mother.

Readers are learning how to make coffee.

Instead of going to class, it's like having afternoon tea with friends.

Readers commented on the coffee hand class at Shang School on the afternoon of May 13. "it's not like having a class, it's like having a cup of afternoon tea with my new friends for more than an hour."

In the orange class last Saturday, we invited Starbucks black apron barista Liu Dingyun to teach readers how to make coffee by hand. Before the class, Liu Dingyun and his colleagues arranged the class together to prepare exquisite star ice brown desserts for the readers. Teacher Zheng of Shangxue School also arranged flowers for the orange class to make the class appear more atmosphere.

How to smell the coffee, how to brew the coffee with various utensils, how much water is needed. Liu Dingyun explained to the readers carefully. Interested readers also made coffee by hand under the guidance of Liu Dingyun.

There are also rules about how to eat dessert when drinking coffee. Liu Dingyun asked everyone to drink coffee, while explaining how much to drink when adding dessert, coffee flavor can be more rich.

The 12 readers who participated in this activity drank coffee and tasted exquisite desserts together, and learned the small skills of making coffee by hand in the communication. Ouyangping said: "I am no longer afraid of having no place to go on weekends. After following the orange class, all interested classes will sign up with my friends."

Everyone asked the thoughtful studio to organize similar courses several times, and they felt that one class was too little.
