On August 21, the Organization Department of the Ledong County Party Committee (County Party Committee Talent Development Bureau), the County Communist Youth League Committee, and the County Education Bureau, in collaboration with the Haikou International Talent Home, held a public welfare English teaching session for international talent volunteers at the County Siyuan Experimental Primary School. This initiative enabled children to access international classrooms right on their doorstep, engage in face-to-face interactions with international professionals, and brighten their summer vacation with knowledge and joy.

In the classroom, the international foreign-language volunteer teaching team tailored their activity plans according to the age groups of the children, expanding the number of instructional classes to three and designing customized curriculum content for each class—focusing on cultivating a linguistic intuition and encouraging playful imitation for younger students, while emphasizing situational dialogue and expressive skill development for older students—ensuring that children of every age group can achieve growth at a pace that suits them best.

It is understood that among the six teaching volunteers of this international talent volunteer team, three hold doctoral degrees, two hold master's degrees, and one holds an undergraduate degree. Although they hail from different countries and professional fields, they all share the same passion for public welfare. The children now have the opportunity to access authentic English pronunciation and genuine ways of communication right at their doorstep; every time they speak or engage in interaction in class, this experience subtly bridges the gap between them and the wider world. More importantly, the classroom offers an immersive experience with the children at its core—English is woven into the rhythm of songs, embedded within game challenges, and integrated into interactive situational Q&A sessions; throughout the classroom, a vibrant wave of enthusiasm for participation continues to flow.

In the next phase, the Organization Department of the Ledong County Party Committee (County Party Committee Talent Development Bureau), the County Communist Youth League Committee, and the County Education Bureau will continue to serve as bridges and links, establish broader international talent exchange platforms, deepen collaborative partnerships, and inject international talent momentum into the economic and social development of Ledong. Simultaneously, by closely addressing the practical needs of children's growth, they will persistently launch public welfare classes featuring foreign teachers, facilitate the dissemination of high-quality educational resources to grassroots levels, and support the healthy and joyful development of young people.

"The foreign teacher always has such interesting things to say; he would invite us to play some games—it felt like we were playing a game, yet also like we were learning," said Liu Yuyao, a fourth-grade student.

"I feel that the teachers here are highly professional, and the games here are very fun. I've come to appreciate how interesting English can be. The colors we learned were red, white, blue, and green—red, (white), green, and blue," said Chen Yaqi, a fourth-grade student.

"I brought my child to participate in this public welfare English class activity today, and I found it truly wonderful. While attending the class, my child played with the teacher throughout the entire session; they had a very pleasant experience, learned English, and gained tremendous benefits," said Han Biying, a parent of one of the children.

"I found this public welfare lesson to be exceptionally valuable and highly practical. Previously, my child didn't dare to speak; however, through interactive games, he has now become confident in speaking English," said Xie Qiuying, a parent of the student.

"Hello, my name is Jay. I'm very happy to have this opportunity. The students here are truly hardworking; they know that with enough English practice, they can write in English. Some students have even mentioned that they speak excellent English. They all enjoy learning, and next time, I'll need to prepare even more challenging material for teaching," said the foreign language volunteer, Jay.

8月21日,乐东县委组织部(县委人才发展局)、团县委、县教育局联合海口国际人才之家,在乐东思源实验小学开展国际人才志愿者英语支教公益课,为孩子们在家门口享受国际课堂,面对面同国际人才互动交流,用知识与欢笑点亮少儿缤纷暑期。

活动的火爆程度,从报名伊始便超出预期。原计划招收40名学生、开设1个教学班,活动消息一经发布,咨询和报名信息便源源不断涌来,累计报名人数近100人。为更好保障课堂教学质效,国际人才外教志愿者团队结合少儿年龄分层调整活动方案,增设教学班至3个,并为每个班量身定制差异化的课程内容——低年级侧重语感启蒙和趣味模仿,高年级则加强情景对话和表达训练,确保每一个年龄段的孩子都能在适合自己的节奏里收获成长。

而支撑这份精彩活动的,是一支堪称“高配”的国际人才志愿者团队。6名授课志愿者中,博士3人、硕士2人、本科1人,他们来自不同国家和专业领域,却怀揣着同样的公益热忱。孩子们在家门口就能接触到纯正的英语发音和地道的交流方式,课堂上的每一次开口、每一次互动,都在无形中拉近他们与广阔世界的距离。更重要的是,课堂以孩子为主角的沉浸式体验——英语被装进歌曲的节拍里、藏在游戏的闯关里、化在情景问答的你来我往中,整间教室始终涌动着高涨的参与热情。

其中,符积虎博士与莫娜博士的搭档课格外引人注目。符积虎博士是新加坡国立大学食品科技系工业咨询委员会成员,学术功底深厚;莫娜博士则集教育工作者、心理咨询师多重身份于一身,教育实践经验丰富。两人联手开设英语欣赏课,把吉他伴奏请进课堂,带着孩子们一边打着节拍,一边齐声合唱英文经典曲目。音符流淌之间,语言不再是一串需要死记硬背的符号,而是可以随旋律自然流淌出来的快乐表达,孩子们从羞于开口到放声跟唱,隔阂在歌声中悄然消融。

专攻少儿趣味互动教学的Jay和优雅老师,则把课堂变成了一场盛大的游戏嘉年华。他们设计了大量课堂游戏、问答闯关和即时奖励环节,孩子们围坐成一圈,目光紧紧追随着老师的一举一动,小手举得高高,争先恐后冲上台参与挑战。每一轮闯关成功,都能赢来掌声和奖励贴纸,而藏在游戏背后的单词和句型,也在不知不觉中刻进了孩子们的记忆里。

王明晴(Faith)博士和秦珍僖老师则另辟蹊径,用生动的肢体示范和层层递进的趣味提问,引导孩子们跟读模仿、大胆举手作答。课堂时而变成律动操练场,孩子们伸展手臂、踏动脚步,边动边学;时而又静下来,大家低头专注书写,一笔一画记录新学的词句。动静结合之间,教室里处处涌动着少年独有的蓬勃朝气——那是一种被真正激发的求知欲,而不是被动填充的沉闷。

自始至终,老师们都牢牢抓住“参与感”这条主线,将英语学习自然融入歌曲、游戏、互动问答和小组展示。活动接近尾声时,志愿者们为每一位孩子颁发了纪念奖状。薄薄一张证书,既是对他们课堂踊跃表现的郑重肯定,更是在幼小心灵里播下一粒关于语言、关于世界的兴趣种子。孩子们手捧奖状,笑容灿若骄阳,簇拥着志愿者老师们合影留念,那一刻,镜头定格的不仅是愉快的课堂记忆,更是这个暑期最闪亮的成长印记。

课后反馈更是温暖而热烈。家长们纷纷感叹,孩子回家后哼着英文歌、比划着课堂上学到的动作,眼里闪着光,“在家门口就能享受到这么优质的外教公益课,既开阔了眼界,也练出了表达胆量,真的很感谢政府。”孩子们则用最朴素的语言表达最真实的欢喜——“太好玩了!”“我还想上!”——这些稚嫩的声音,成为对活动最好的注脚。

“参与本次国际人才英语支教公益课我非常开心,孩子们课堂积极踊跃、满怀英语学习热情。希望他们永葆求知热忱,大胆表达,在求知路上不断收获成长与进步。”王明晴博士表示。

“很开心参加本次公益支教科,孩子们上课专注投入,六年级学生的英语水平堪比初一,本地英语教学成果很亮眼。”莫娜博士表示。

“Thank you for organizing this free event for the children.The professional foreign teachers can create a real English atmosphere for the kids.They learn English while playing games, and they are happy to speak out.I hope to see more activities like this in the future!”(感谢你们为孩子们组织这次免费的活动。专业的外教能为孩子们营造真实的英语氛围。他们在玩游戏的同时学习英语,并且很乐意开口表达。希望未来能看到更多这样的活动!)学生麦千一的家长回应符积虎博士问及活动效果时说道。

“英语课特别有趣,老师讲课生动好玩。通过小猴子的故事我懂得帮助别人自己也会收获快乐,我还学了英文歌曲,非常喜欢英语课堂,期待下次再来上课。”学生梁安妮表示。

下一步,乐东县委组织部(县委人才发展局)、团县委、县教育局将继续发挥桥梁纽带作用,搭建更广阔的国际人才交流平台,深化对接联络合作,为乐东经济社会发展注入国际化人才动能。同时,紧扣少年儿童成长的实际需求,持续推出外教公益课堂,推动优质教育资源下沉基层,助力青少年健康快乐成长成才。
