Hey, I'm afraid I don't actually know what a "keypal" is, but I'm assuming I'm on the right forum!!!
I need about 6 students from another EFL country between the ages of about 6-8, preferably at Intermediate level. I'm hoping to set up a scheme whereby the students can take part in a group project, or maybe do projects about each other's countries. I only have a few weeks to start this project, although if it goes well, then the school might well decide to incorporate it.
So, if you have any suitable students, please get in touch!!!
Thanks

Hey there,

Do you have any older students like age 13 - 16.

Hey. What ability are your students? Mine are intermediate, as they go to an English Language school, where they are discouraged from using Arabic at all. Therefore, some of my younger kids are at a much higher level than would be expected from their age.
So therefore, some of my 8 year old students would probably cope very well working with older students. Otherwise, my oldest student is 12. His English is near-perfect!!! :D
Unfortunately, I only teach very few students who might be suitable for this, as it is a small school, and the summer school is even smaller!!! But if you are interested in trying with these kids, let me know.
Thanks!!!
