What they say on CLIL in Makassar

Strength of the presentation:

• LIA is the best. You create really good teachers in Makassar.
• Very interesting workshop!
• It is very interesting and useful for us as English teachers and content teachers.
• The presenter talked about CLIL that is needed now, especially for the improvement of education in Makassar.
• The presenter knew how to attract the participants’ attention.
• Very good.
• Let us know what CLIL is
• Her presentation is not boring and provides the participants with creative activities.
• Attractive, communicative and full of body language. Very nice!
• The presentation was clarified by the real life samples and jokes.
• Inspire and motivate me to learn English better than before.
• Could pay equal attention to content & language teachers and also give anecdotes, so the workshop was fun and made us know the aim of CLIL.
• The contents of the presentation are good.
• The delivery of materials is really fun and accurate.
• Using short sentences, which are easy to understand.
• It can be useful for us as teachers to implement in our class.
• I expect more from the workshop because I need some tips in teaching our classes, especially teaching kids with fun.
• Very good but it is better if LIA gives the softcopy to the participants.
• The presentation was good for me because she used Bahasa Indonesia and English.

Suggestions for the improvement:

• This seminar is very useful for us (teachers in Makassar), so hopefully LIA is going to hold the more challenging one! I’m waiting for your invitation to join the best seminar!
• I hope LIA would go to my school Athirah Elementary School (Bukit Baruga Makassar) to help us develop the contents in English!
• It should be conducted longer.
• I think it would be better if this kind of workshop can be held twice a year, and please inform the workshop to all schools.
• Better prepared examples.
• You must have the workshop regularly to increase our knowledge.
• I think you must give us more workshops especially for RSBI teacher.
• One day seminar is too short. Give us two or three day seminar for much better understanding.
• The presenter should give more examples.
• I hope the next workshop will provide activities in teaching English like games or role play.
• Should display more pictures.
• I hope that this event would be held annually since it can enhance the knowledge and motivation of English and Content teachers.
• The presenter should give more examples on the application..
• The presenters are creative and communicative.
• For the next workshop, it’s better for the workshop committee to gain more sponsors in order to get more prizes.
• More illustrations and examples about CLIL abroad.
• Please give more materials in CDs or cassettes.
• The presenter sometimes called one of committee to help her, so LIA should have two or more members of committee nearby.
• As I know that workshop is a kind of event where the participants practice more in teaching.
• This presentation is not enough for one day. It must be 2 days.

Other comments:

• Give more games and clearer examples.
• LIA always presents up to date information and I hope you can give solutions to our students on how to pass UAN.
• Show more interesting materials again using new methods.
• There should be more practice.
• Thank you for conducting this workshop. Hopefully it won’t be the last one.
• I want to join LIA because LIA has good presenters.
• CLIL might be good for RSBI or SBI schools, but it seems difficult to be applied to non-RSBI schools. Any solution???
• Give more attention, especially in giving “Prizes” to participants who come from so faraway places, he…he…he… thanks!
• Hold another workshop about CLIL to make us more understand.
• LIA must provide the best service for customers for the next workshop.
• LIA must hold the next workshop in campus.
• The sound system should be fixed to produce sufficiently loud voice that could be heard by the participants.
• think if participants can do some discussion in groups, it will be more interesting and educating.
• The presenter tends to pay attention to and interact with participants in a certain part of the room.The materials must be given before the program starts. Don’t make us wait for materials.
• In the next workshop, we maybe talk about “curriculum”.
• I hope LIA could present a native speaker who is knowledgeable about or has experience using the materials of the seminar.
• She was explaining the materials well.
