1.     Host: Stephy / No demo lesson:  Kevin will explain the learning materials of our textbooks such as mp3 files, translations, scripts etc. 

 

2.     New teacher: Lisa. She was one of the first teachers, when English aloud had just two teachers. She is now at university. She will teach three hours a day, but she comes to the teachers' meeting on Monday.

 

3.     Last month October re-registration rate: School Total: 90%, Megan 100%, Courtney 100%, Jessica 100%, Cary 91%, Christie 91%

 

4.     This month Registration rate better than last month: School Total: 95%, Megan 100% again, Sarah 100%, Carrie 100%.

 

5.     We pay USD 600 -700 for the Internet advertising. From that, we gain 2-6 new students at the moment. The total of these new students school fees total: USD 350-1000.  So our school cannot survive. We live from our students high re-registration and by word of mouth. We especially thank our teachers who have a high re-registrations rate and who have so nice students who send us another student. 

 

6.     Multi-Media Writing Contest: We will have 6 teachers or more to select 4 best works. The highest and lowest scores will be ignored. The lowest score: 1, the highest score: 20.  Teachers can find all the info and guidelines to tell their students http://www.aloud.kr/xe/tp0901

 

7.     Students will post their writing onto their teachers board. The teacher will correct it and post it onto the contest board.

 

8.     Last year: Danny and Heejun had the most points (No. 1). No 3 was JaeHum. He graduated from a university in the USA. Samantha and Judith were no. 5, with video. Grand Prize: Danny and Heejun. Junior Grand Prize: Judy, Multi-Media Prize: Samantha.        

 

9.     Showing us their videos is very important. Because videos dont lie as much as writings.
