How tutor learns English?

By Edward Lai

As a tutor at the English Corner for almost two years, the most common questions are “what are your strategies to learn English?” Or”how do you improve your English?”

    I am lucky to become one of the new tutors at English Corner for this semester.  During the first month, I met many new friends, joined the Welcome party, and meanwhile started helping students with their English questions.  I am excited to be a part of this big family and can’t wait to share this with all of you!

Cindy Says!

My name is Cindy, I’m a senior student in the English department.

Lance Says!

It has almost been a month and half that I have been tutoring in the English Corner, and I have never felt 6 six weeks go by so fast before. My favorite part of the English corner is of course all of the people that I have met since I started working there. Working in the English Corner is a great way for me to learn about the island of Taiwan and its people. 

English Corner 2010!

          Recently at the English corner we have had two very fun activities!  The first one we held was the “Welcome Party”, to welcome Lance, Jordan and I to Taiwan. The most recent party we had was in the spirit of Easter. 

What Jordan says~

By Jordan Browne
 When I first arrived in Taipei I had no idea what to expect. Getting off the plane I was completely out of my element and unsure of my surroundings. I knew nothing about Taiwanese culture, history or the language - in essence I was the unprepared traveler, a stranger in a strange land. The purpose of my job at English Corner, what I hope to do, is to help give my students an understanding of American culture and language: the kind of knowledge which I didn’t have of Taiwan upon my arrival.

Thanksgiving in the English Corner

By Rachel Tobin
Thanksgiving every year heralds in the “holiday season”, with Christmas, Hanukah, and New Years all in close succession. Naturally, it also heralds in a time of rushing and stress, too, with last minute attempts to get everything just right and on time. Thanksgiving in Taiwan was no different, if not even more complicated in its food orchestrations. Some foods we planned on serving weren’t available for love or money in Taiwan, and others had close substitutes that worked, in theory, but on which a conclusion in the matter would not be reached until it was too late to do over.

Thanksgiving Speech

By Mark Bradt

First of all I want to thank you all for coming to the English Corner’s thanksgiving party. My name is Mark, and I am a tutor here at the corner. I am incredibly excited to be sharing this part of American culture with everyone here today. To start off, I would like to give you a little Thanksgiving history to better understand the relationship this holiday has with our culture. While Christmas and Easter are celebrated throughout western culture, Thanksgiving is solely an American holiday. The first Thanksgiving took place in 1621 Virginia by Pilgrims who were celebrating the harvest and giving thanks to their Christian God. Since then it has become a secular national holiday of giving thanks for what we all have and share. Families get together for a large dinner that consists of just as many recipes as America has families. Most often, large quantities of Turkey, mashed potatoes, and stuffing are eaten by all, before passing out in front of whatever football game happens to be on.
