Class 1: Self-Introduction
The PowerBite is our term for the basic unit of communications in English. It is a the most common structure used in English communications. In this class we will introduce the PowerBite and work to build one that introduces you and who you are. We want to make sure that you give a great first impression in that job interview, critical meeting or university interview. We will also spend time reviewing the common errors that Chinese speakers make in English.

Storytelling is a powerful way to connect with others. It creates a sense of empathy and understanding between the storyteller and the audience of employees, customers and business partners.

We will continue to review the common errors that Chinese speakers make in English.
Class 4: Personal Stories
Personal stories are critical to your career success and to building your reputation inside your company and your industry. They are also critical for interviews for jobs, universities or internships. By creating a compelling personal story, you can connect with others, inspire change, and create a lasting impact. We will review main difference between British and American English, numbers and dates.
