Q: In this workshop, what are the main architectural themes?
A: Visualization Skill is one of the most important foundations of architecture. When we see the subway sign, do you know it's a subway station right away? See, language is not the only means of communication. Symbol is the language of architecture. So what are the difference of architectural symbols in different countries and cultures? What do they mean? Let is answer these question with our curiosity through the workshop.
Q: What is the language of the workshop? Is the teacher a foreign English teacher? I'm still a pupil. Can you understand me?
A: The workshop is taught in English, led by a foreign English teacher with support by a Chinese assistant. We suggest the attendees are from primary school, aged 7-11, with more than one year's English learning experience. Friendly Tip: More important than English level is that the students can express and communicate bravely.
Q: What do you need to prepare for class?
A: All the materials will be prepared for students. The students just need to bring her/his interest, courage and curiosity to the workshop.
