PREFACE

 

            After beginning teaching conversational English at Buddhist Institutes in Taiwan, it became apparent that there was a lack of suitable teaching material. I thought to design a textbook series specifically aimed at introducing basic Buddhist terminology along with conversational English that could be used to teach the Sangha, but resolve to actually put it to print didn’t come until visiting India in 1995.

            There I met other teachers who, like myself, were using conventional textbooks and a lot of improvisation. They encouraged me to begin the project. This book is the result of their encouragement.

            The West desperately needs competent Dharma teachers who can speak English. I hope that in a small way this text may help fulfill this need.

THEME OF THE TEXT

            The text is based on a group of Buddhist monks and nuns attending an international Buddhist institute. Through a conversational story line, grammar, conversational expressions, and Buddhist terminology are introduced.

LAYOUT OF THE TEXT

            The text is divided into two parts – part one for beginning level students and part two for intermediate level students. Each part contains twelve units and each unit consists of the following sections:

1. Dialogue

2. Points of Practice

3. Complete the blank.

4. Choose the correct answer.

5. Construct a dialogue.

6. Comprehension / discussion exercise.

            In Unit One, a teaching plan is given as an example of how to use the text. Ideally, a cassette should be used for the dialogue. If you are in a position to make one (six male and three female native speakers would be required), I suggest that you do so.

THE TEXT AND THE SUDENTT

            Basically this text book is aimed at the “false starter” – i.e. a student who has received some formal instruction in English but needs to have what he has learn put into a conversational context. For total beginner, the stories that conclude each chapter may prove too challenging and can be omitted. For these students, basic grammar will also have to be taught along with the dialogues. Finally, those students who can already speak quite well, but lack knowledge of Buddhist related vocabulary, can concentrate on the stories; the dialogues can be either totally omitted or just taught when there is deemed a need.

CLASS MATERIAL AND TEACHING ADVICE

            When practicing dialogues, flash cards may prove to be an invaluable device that can save students from losing the thread of the conversation when replying. Blank business cards make excellent flash cards. Examples of where flash cards would be useful are.
