These lesson typically involve groups of 5 students in a classroom equipped with a laptop, a video projector and a sound system. The lessons will use an Oxford textbook, presentations and speaking and listening activities. There will be 2 or 3 other classes running at the same time taught by other volunteers. The manager will always be in the school while volunteer are working to provide assistance and feedback.
