How to promote our English standard through Drama? By Jessica Chan
Why I joined this program? I joined this program because I was interested in acting and I wanted to improve my English standard too! I felt very happy when I had a chance to join this program! I would like to thank all of my teachers because they introduced me to join this special program.
About the program Increase our motivation and participation Increase our confidence and fluency in 'spoken English' Build-up a group discussion and self expression Working within a group and helping to support each other Perform a story in a stage by each group
Mask In the first lesson, we learnt about the mask. It is very important for an actor or an actress to have different facial expressions. I learnt how to show my feelings: happy, angry, sad and joyful. It is very difficult to do but it has a lot of fun.
