This is a smart idea,I like how they are trying to reach out and help other learn how to speak correct English.
I don’t belive I ever even seen a English Village before this was very interesting to me.

You might be interested to note that Taiwan now has its own English village which opened in 2007. It is located in Taoyuan which is about an hour away from Taipei.

It has a mock airport, and a mock airplane where students engage in actual English conversation. This is a new concept to Chinese students who usually learn by rote and memorization. The emphasis is on actual learning experience instead of “TESTS.”

I never really heard about edutainment before. Your post is such an eye opening to me. Thanks a lot. And I do hope that we also will have an English Village over here. English is not our first language, many of us are still not fluent in English while the world is getting smaller. What has been taught in school are just never enough. How much could an English teacher could do in a class of over 40 students? An English Village is an option that most people could opt to.

Language villages are very interesting, and they do work. I have a friend, that actually went to a Spanish village in the US, and she worked as a councilor. She said that 100% of the time is devoted to that language. Classes were held outside, and there were many activities. This allowed for learning the foreign language to be fun.
