Learning English Through Story-telling and Acting

Montag, 2. März 2020, 15:00

Hello Everyone!

I found this fun, short article about a group of EFL (English as a Foreign Language) learners who are learning and practicing their English by telling their own stories and then acting them out in a play.

You can read the article here:https://www.wqad.com/article/life/immigrants-learn-english-find-family-by-sharing-fork-tales/526-d0d7ddf6-a414-42cf-99c5-377c4ff51311

What do you think about this? I think this is a wonderful idea that makes the English very practical for students but also helps them share their stories and find ways to relate to people around them. Also it's fun! Acting is a way to come out of our shell so we don't feel as worried about speaking in a foreign language. 

Have you ever acted in a play in a foreign language? If you have, I would love to hear about your experiences! Please feel free to tell everyone below in the comments or request a lesson and tell me about it. :)

Have a great day everyone!

To come out of one's shell: to become less shy or to overcome one's inhibitions
