Mr. Poulad systematically introduced the definition and development of EAL(English as an Additional Language) as well as its training objectives and teaching arrangement. Then, he discussed with the teachers about how to effectively teach the basic courses of English as a second language students through the comparison and case analysis of the students’ involvement, during which teachers are always asking questions about their own interests and Mr.Poulad took his own experience as an example to answer the teachers' questions about EAL and its teaching philosophy as well as teaching methodology in Canada.
