At the end of every academic year, the academy organizes presentation of EP courses, EP Show and exhibition of students’ works, of which the EP Show is the carnival for Kaiwen Academy to display its outcomes of quality-oriented education lead by science, physical education and art.
Presentation of EP Courses
In May 2019, parents attended a number of EP courses on campus, including Spanish, Japanese, French, soccer, golf, basketball, football, tennis and baseball, and obtained first-hand impression on those characteristic EP courses.
After the visit, parents left the following feedbacks:
“The teachers have good interacting skills and provide each student with opportunities to practice. The small-sized class is a plausible way of teaching. I hope the EP courses will continue.”
“In the class, teachers deliver language, culture and the spirit to the students at the same time, which is good for them to learn.”
“The EP course on soccer promotes physical coordination abilities of the kids. It is a lot of fun, and helps kids to make more friends.”
“Although EP courses are not compulsory, they are essential to develop students’ cognition and interest. The kids pretty like and look forward to take EP courses.”
