Reflection According to the teaching design, the teaching of reading will be done in a flexible way. This lesson focuses on Lao She and his play Teahouse and today, activities that can be done in the teahouse. Most of the students can involve in the class, but some them still dare not to speak. The teacher should encourage students to speak more and gain more confidence from learning English.
