Previous Experience of using technology for teaching and learning

I was worked in a company and it had a language training centre. I wasn’t a teacher but I also had some students because I was in charge of another part of students’ study. In my opinion, IT is very useful in language learning. The teachers often played some videos to show the different scenes which looks like a story, it was more interesting, and most students liked studying the “boring” language, and also had deep impression because of the fiction. Meanwhile, students could learn the correct pronunciation by audios except teachers.

Sometimes, I had to hold a small lecture for the students who want to study abroad, apart from my professional knowledge, the most useful tool was PowerPoint. PowerPoint displayed information clearly and helped me to have a logical lecture.

Also, some overseas universities asked students to have an interview before application. Chinese student couldn’t go abroad immediately, at this moment, long-distance video was a good choice, it made everything conveniently.
