CKPC voluntary teaching team has visited Gantuan Primary School in Congjiang county of Guizhou province twice with an outstanding result. They taught English, Science, Music, and also prepared a “distance voluntary teaching” English introductory video. The video was saved inside an USB and sent to Gantuan Primary School for broadcast, in order to increase students’ interest in learning English and reduce their future English learning barriers.
In September 2019, the voluntary teaching team recruited new members in college, trained and established a team, then prepared lesson plans and conducted trial teaching. During the Christmas holiday in December, 16 members of the team went to Guizhou for voluntary teaching. This time, they concentrated on teaching the third and fourth grades, focusing on Chinese and Mathematics, using activities and multimedia teaching methods, in conjunction with the traditional teaching of the teachers from Gantuan Primary School. The morning study class covered the entire six grades, English revision was also added in the class. At noon on the last day, a bazaar was held, and the questions asked by the booths to the students were all related to class. The students also kept the tradition of writing letters to brothers and sisters. The whole voluntary teaching activity was very popular with local students.
Compared with the past, the team members got more time to interact with the principal and teachers of the primary school. Some PPTs and teaching materials were directly reserved for them. They also had in-depth exchanges to discuss the next phase of the activity, especially how to strengthen English teaching in the future.
澳門大學曹光彪書院義教團，曾兩次到貴州從江縣貫洞鎮幹團小學義教，成效突出。義教內容包括英語、科學、音樂等，也曾經製作“遠程義教”英語入門影片，放到U盤寄往幹團小學播放，以提高學生學英語的興趣，和降低他們將來學英語門欄。
2019年9月，義教團在書院招募新團員，接著做訓練，建立團隊，準備教案，進行試教。12月聖誕節期間，16位義教團員到貴州義教。這期義教集中教三四年級，圍繞語文和數學，用活動和多媒體教學法，配合幹團老師的傳統授課，早讀則覆蓋全部六個年級，也加入一些英語複習。最後一天中午，舉辦園遊會，各攤位給小朋友的提問，都是上課有關的內容。另外還有傳統寫信給哥哥姐姐的活動。整個義教活動十分受當地小朋友歡迎。
相對以往，這次有較多時間跟小學的校長老師互動，有些PPT、教具等直接留下給他們用，也和校長主任深入交流，商討下一期做法，特別是規劃將來如何加強英語教學。
