Spring Semester, 2011

Because I wanted more people taking part in my seminars, I made posters about AESS and put them up in front of all the main departments in KISOKO. My effort paid, and almost 40 people applied to join.

After having everybody come in, fill in a questionnaire and take a level test, I was able to make the following 3 groups:

Wednesday, 14:40-16:10, advanced (around 800 TOEIC score), 10 students

Thursday, 14:40-16:10, intermediate (around 700 TOEIC score), 10 students

Friday, 15:40-16:10, beginners (around 500-600 TOEIC score), 12 students

There are also 2 other students, who couldn't attend any of the larger seminars due to their busy schedule, that come to my office every Monday for a 1 hour class.

It is true that the numbers started dwindling once the hot months began (especially for the Thursday class), but I am pleased to say that attendance is still satisfactory in the other groups!
