Welcome
About Michael Dann
Education is not just a career for me, it's a passion. I have been involved in education for almost 25 years, 14 years as a teacher in Australia and as a foreign English teacher in China since 2004.
While I've been teaching, I have also directed 2 companies, ISNet Pty Ltd. in Australia and HefeiWaiKe Co,. Ltd. in China.
I foresee a bright future for China's globalisation and Chinese trading abroad.

METHODS AND PHILOSOPHY
As an English teacher, my focus is on developing Cultural Awareness through Language Experience and Student Centred Learning methods.
I use inquiry based research and presentations whereby the students research their topics in English and demonstrate their knowledge.
I have students prepare PowerPoint and speaking presentations as well as informal small group discussions.
I teach students how to learn different ways.
