Walsh believes in cultivating the right learning environment for every student. (CONTRIBUTED PHOTOS)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Established three years ago, LIVEnglish located in Gualo Rai aims to teach local and foreign students to not just learn material but to live it. Owner Pamela Olivia V. Walsh operated a small English conversation school in Japan for eight years and taught in several companies and public schools. She believes in trying to cultivate a learning environment that has substantial effects on a student\u2019s educational progress.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThat\u2019s where our name, LIVEnglish comes from\u2026 LIVEnglish is a multifaceted program that immerses students in an \u2018English environment and culture\u2019 abroad. Since Saipan is a diverse community, we help foreign students with English proficiency, English as a second language, conversational skills, and offer homestay programs,\u201d she said<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe accept foreign and non-foreign students from pre-Kindergarten (or 3 years old) all the way to adults and we also offer Homework Help, Business English, College Preparation, and Basic Japanese lessons\u2026 We also offer tutoring services and lessons online,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n<p>Attending summer school for children has proven to be more important than ever to regain learning loss when the COVID-19 virus was declared as a pandemic in March with many schools abruptly closed and went online. Walsh believes that extra courses taken mean a good head start in the incoming school year.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe would like to make the most out of the summer break for students and currently, we have an ongoing \u2018Summer School Before Back to School\u2019 program that runs for 10 days Monday to Friday from 1pm to 3pm. This includes 20 hours of reading, writing, and Math for kindergarten to 12th grade students and we also have tutoring services Monday-Friday, from 3:30pm to 4:30pm,\u201d Walsh said.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_327621\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-327621\" style=\"width: 225px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Livenglish-pix-2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-327621\" src=\"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Livenglish-pix-2-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-327621\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">LIVEnglish accepts students from Kindergarten to 12th grade.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>\u201cThe safety of students and teachers is also our priority. We require hand washing and sanitizing before each activity transition. We conduct classes under a very limited class size to observe social distancing. We adhere to extensive cleaning procedures before lessons and right after every class finishes,\u201d Walsh added.<\/p>\n<p>Walsh is all for parents and students who invest in education by taking extra classes that can help them to take more advanced classes and be a step ahead among their peers. \u201cI have been teaching young children for over 15 years and it has been rewarding and a great part of my life. I can\u2019t imagine doing anything else,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe treat students like family, parents always appreciate the work we do to help their children\u2026 At LIVEnglish, we help students hone their academic and social skills and learn from teachers and other students in a more personal environment,\u201d she added<\/p>\n<p>LIVEnglish is located on second floor of Pine Tree Building Middle Road in Gualo Rai.
