Sharing, teaching, and learning as a community. This is what AELIC is about.
It was a sell out crowd!
Mr. Peter MaClure from England. He spoke on marriage from a Christian Biblical understandingFrom time to time native English speakers are invited to interact with the students. This allows first hand contact with native speakers. English is like any other language with different meanings for words and diverse accents. Inviting native speakers from different countries such as England, Canada, Australia, and the United States gives the students opportunities to hear English spoken in many different ways. These discussion times also allow students to learn more about the cultures of many of the visitors.
Visitors are free to speak about themselves or can come prepared with subjects for discussion. Subjects that have been presented by visitors and discussed with students are marriage from a religious and cultural perspective, HIV/AIDS - cultural viewpoints and prevention, cultural differences between the West and Africa, men and women's roles within different socieites. These are only a few of the subjects that have initiated positive discussion and debate. Regardless of the subject, positions, and disagreements students and visitors leave with a deeper understanding of one another.
