Interesting Experiences on Voice Thread


Among our peers’ voice threads, I enjoyed participated in Miao’s Get Acquainted with Each Other very much. Her class is the ESL class which focuses on communication for international students. She used voice thread to let everybody get acquainted with each other and let everybody talk about their own experiences of studying abroad, either interesting things or difficulties. Her voice thread is very suitable for her teaching purpose because for a speaking class, the purpose is to get everyone speak. To avoid awkward, she come up with these topics that closely related to international students so that it’s easy for students to talk about. And by sharing their own experiences, they can know each other better by having the same feeling in others. 

Also I enjoyed Li Ying’s Princess Class as well, the instructions are very clear by giving examples. She provide an interesting topic for younger learner, the topic will let students engage in the activity with various answers.
All in all, both of their voice threads are very suitable for their teaching purposes and I enjoyed them a lot!
