Dearforeignteacher,

IamLiHua,oneofyourstudents.Regardingthegroupingmethodfortheoraltrainingcourse,

Iwouldliketoraisesomeconcernsandsuggestions.Whileitistruethatrandomlymixingup

studentscanencouragemorecommunicationandinteraction,theremayalsobesomepotential

issuestoconsider.

Firstly,randomgroupingcanresultinstudentswithvastlydifferentspeakingabilitiesbeing

pairedtogether.Thismaymakesomestudentswithstrongercommunicationskillsfeelinhibited,

whilethosewithweakerspeakingskillsmayfeeloverwhelmed.Additionally,somestudentsmay

feeluneasyanduncomfortablehavingtoworkwithunfamiliarclassmates.

Therefore,Isuggestthatamorethoughtfulgroupingmethodbeadopted,suchasgrouping
