CEV is an English Village, where students come to be taught in an immersion program. There are 8 teachers, from various countries and we teach different students every week as part of the ‘camp’. It is an English only environment where the students visit a variety of simulation rooms such as Post Office, Bank, Hospital, Shop, Airport, Hotel and Restaurant as well as practice conservation in English. There are also other fun rooms such as Science, Art, Language Laboratory and Movie Theatre. We teach primarily students from the age of 9-15 years old. On occasion we teach Kindergarten and twice a year we have a hagwon style class in the evenings where the same students return everyday.
There is also a Cyber School a CEV. Two teachers normally work in here at a time. In Cyber School teachers teach three forty five minute classes a day. Each class has around five students and you teach conversation and phonics via a web cam. This form of teaching is not as fun as regular English camp but it is very easy!
I have been working here for two years on this contract, my time is soon coming to an end. Although I won’t miss the monotonous nature/schedule of this job I will definitely miss the ridiculously easy position…and of course the sweet sweet students!
