Anna's School, a kindergarten and training centre, provided cEngliosh for clients aged from one and a half years old, to sixty.  With a mixture of Foreign and Chinese teachers, it produced success in many aeas.   These successes included phonics, reading, listneing, writing and speaking skills.
​









Some of these successes have gone on to complete IELTS, Cambridge English, KET, PET and even FCE.
​
The school ran for approximately 10 years, from 2014 to 2024, however, the running cost of Covid as well as the implemended Double Education Policy here in China, took its toll and closure was like many other centres, even today, became inevitable.
​










Students undertook many weekly lessons, however, the greater success came with those who undertook more classes, where as those taking fewer, took longer to achieve their goals.
​










​Students were taught to follow a very simple procedure of the three 'P's' (Preparation, Practice, Performance) formulae, where preparation with teaching aides commenced first, following their own personal practice and finally presentation of their achievements.
​










Many challenges were faced, taking those shy and unwilling and building them into potential public speakers.  However, it took conquering the communication barrier and building their capability to learn and intake the right vocabulably, sentneces and required information, that allowed them to grow and gain more confidence in their own abilities.
​










The greatest way of achieving their oral capabilities, was to release them from the classroom and introduce them to original and real situations, this allowing them to develop their skills and increase confidence, knowing how and what to do in various situations, these including shopping, outdoor and in door activities, as well as activites of interest to them as hobbies (basketball, computer games, films， movies, radio and other hobbies).
