The students at AELS take weekly exams to test their knowledge of the content they have been learning. However, the culture week is the actual test. Culture week allows us to see how the students interact in everyday life situations. Students will learn a significant amount of listening and speaking skills from the week’s guided field trips and local events. Another feature that culture week has to offer is a guest speaker. AELS arranges for a guest speaker to come and present to the whole school. This allows the student to interact with people of other professions. Our guest speakers are always friendly, professional people who have inspiring stories and valuable knowledge to share with students.
Below is a brief schedule of AELS’s culture week.
