On the afternoon of March 27, thirty students at Xinxu School in Suzhou New District had a special English class given by Tang Chongyan and John, a volunteer couple from Suzhou Industrial Park.

"We introduce music to classroom so that students can enjoy the fun of learning English," said Tang. "John and I choose the songs of the Beatles to help the kids with their pronunciation. We also teach them etiquettes through dialogues and group activities."

  

In order to teach at school, the couple took the test and got teaching certificates. "You should practice as much as possible to learn a language. So we give two to three classes a week. We want to do something for these kids and let them know we care."
