The activity started with dancing and singing English nursery songs. Then, it will be followed by learning new vocabulary and expressions related to the topic. The next activity was doing the worksheet individually or in groups. The students were encouraged to practice the conversation in front of the class to improve their confidence. The teacher used pictures and videos for the interactive learning to make the training more fun. In every meeting, the students got points that would be accumulated in the last meeting. The goal of the society services program is to give Sanata Dharma students the experience of becoming educators and to improve the conversation skills of the kids at RBK. The project is expected to assist the students to perform better English in their daily conversation and encourage them to speak English confidently in public.
