New Teacher Management System: BROWNS is committed to hiring teachers who can give students the best lessons with passion and dedication. In the first month after a new teacher is hired, they are trained in how to teach using the BROWNS curriculum. For example, the head teacher regularly observes the new teacher's classes to check their teaching methods, exchanges feedback, and gives advice so that they can teach more effectively. New teachers also observe the classes of existing teachers so that they can understand and teach the BROWNS curriculum more quickly. BROWNS Teacher Workshops: At BROWNS, a teacher workshop is held every two weeks to discuss effective teaching methods, newly released English teaching materials, websites and more, so that all teachers receive the latest information and training. BROWNS Teaching Method: Students studying at BROWNS know exactly what they are learning in every lesson.
