Native English Teachers (NETs)

Our school employs two Native English Teachers (NETs) to ensure every student has a weekly lesson with a native speaker. Working with local teachers, NETs create an authentic English learning environment and develop innovative teaching strategies. They enhance English language learning through diverse activities, promoting confidence and effective communication among students.

Mr Houston

Hello everyone. My name is Mr Houston. This is my third year as a NET here at Canossa School (Hong Kong). I am delighted to be back for another year at this wonderful school, working alongside so many great teachers and teaching so many amazing students.

This year I will be teaching P.1, P.4 and P.5. In the KS1 NET lessons, we will be doing phonics, guided reading and speaking activities. In the KS2 NET lessons, we will focus on shared reading, creative writing and speaking activities.

There are many fun and interesting extra-curricular activities that the NETs are involved in, such as Hooked on Books and the School Newsletter. The extra-curricular activities are a great opportunity for students to have fun, make friends, develop new skills and practise their English in an engaging and authentic way.

  Mr Brown

Hello, my name is Mr. Brown. I am excited to be a Native English Teacher at Canossa School for the 2025 academic year. I am focused on helping students improve their English skills through clear and effective lessons.

I will be teaching P2, P3, and P6 this year. For the younger students, my lessons will focus on building core English skills, including pronunciation, reading fluency, and confident speaking. For Primary 6, we will concentrate on improving comprehension, creative writing, and effective communication to support their ongoing academic progress.

I will also participate in extracurricular activities, such as the School Newsletter and other initiatives, to encourage students’ creativity, teamwork, and confidence in using English.
