Handan Lilac Education Group was established on
Sept 8th, 2001
. There are four schools in
it, Lilac Foreign Language School, Lilac Primary School, Lilac Technical
Secondary School and International shadowboxing (Taiji boxing)
Intercommunioncenter. It is the first foreign language researching institute which
has the qualification to engage the foreign experts approved by the State Bureau
of Foreign Experts. The foreign teachers here are from the universities and high
schools of
America
,
Canada
,
Britain
, and
Australia
and so on.
The group consists of two parts. One lies in the
Fudong Street
of
Handan
city, near to the Guang’an
residential district. It has investment of 3,000,000 yuan, and a teaching
building covering 2,400 square meters. The teaching building has good equipments
such as air conditioner, listening rooms, multi-functional audio-visual
classrooms, and so on. The other one locates in the new
Handan
teachers’ college as well
as
Handan
vocational and technical
College in the south and architecture technique
university
of
Hebei
province in the west. It
covers an area of 350mu (about 58 acres) and makes an investment of
120,000,000yuan. The building area is more than 80,000 square meters. There
are not only the teaching facilities of classrooms, listening rooms, computer
rooms, library, and reading rooms, etc, but also the living facilities of eating
drinking and lodging, etc. Up to
now, there are 12 foreign teachers and 32 Chinese teachers in the group. In
order to guarantee the teaching quality, the group engages some experienced
English teachers of universities or high schools in the local place as the
teaching assistants. We use the teaching method of combining Chinese and Western
“Two teachers, two languages”, that is the Chinese teacher and the foreign
teacher teaching together in the class. This method builds a good English
atmosphere for the students and makes the students’ language sense and
conversational ability improved quickly. So we have received a very warm welcome
from students, parents and the society. Within
less than a year, the number of classes has been up to 47,and the students to
1400 inside it and over 1,000 outside the school. In order to further improve
the teaching quality, the group signed an agreement with the Management College
of Beijing normal University in June, 2002, and became into the teaching
research base of the college. We have carried out the teaching research of
Intensive English Teaching Research for Middle School and Elementary School
Students and so on. We are trying our best to make it realized step by step that
the elementary school graduates have the same English level as the college
graduates, and the middle school students have the English level of CET (band
4).The teaching quality of Lilac School will be
improved continuously through the teaching research.
Management Aim: Unite with all the power that can be united.

To be the most outstanding foreign language training base for children
