Suspended Class, Ongoing Learning
Students were unable to return to school on time under the affection by the epidemic. In order to ensure student’s study keep on going, the teachers in College of French and German Language choose to start teaching online since February 17th. Let’s walk in Mr. Sani’s online class together.
Sani is a teacher from Cameroon, teaches French and English courses in HFSU. This is his French audio-visual speaking class.
Although he can't speak Chinese, and there will be some small communication peoblems with students, but this has not affected his enthusiasm for teaching at all. Before each class, he will remind everyone in the group five minutes in advance to prepare for class, and arrange the learning tasks of the day, so that students can form a good habit of preview before each class start. When we come to the key points of the lecture, he will stop and analyze in detail, after that he will ask students whether they understand it or not. After the class is over, he will let students keep communicate and discuss in the group, and encourage students to put forward problems in time.
Once a time during his online oral class with 200 students, the class got suspended due to the network problem. Mr. Sani try his best to solve the problem, and apologized to the students after he successfully re-connected with the class. Students all expressed their understanding and asked him do not worry about it, because they do like to have his online class very much.
