We have two BAND communities on your smartphone and/or on your computer.
Band provides a format for communication between students, teachers, and parents.
Students are happy to see teachers' articles and pictures up on Band. Not only current students look at Band, but our former students as well. We can continue to be in contact with former students using this method, too.

3. 2.. How to use BAND:
An Example: Students can post their photos, videos, and other content. Then the students can talk with the teacher about posts, make sentences with them, and then those comments can be added to Band. If students make a story about something it can be posted so that teachers and other students can comment on it.
3. 3. Advantages of BAND:
BAND is a good way for students to gain self-confidence and communicate socially in English.
