Hello #EdukaPeople!

In this nice occasion, I want to share about using Comic for teaching and learning English. Comic is a medium used to express ideas with images, often in combination with text or other visual information. Comic is also actually useful for teaching and learning. The objectives of using Comic for teaching and learning English are It is useful for teaching the students with creative approach and fun technique, Comic does not require long sentences or paragraphs, and Increasing literacy by using entertaining teaching media media for students. The skills that can be taught or learned using this Comic are Improving students’ reading skill about the topic and Building vocabulary

There are many apps that you can use for making a Comic. You may use one of them as Comic maker that easier for you. But in this case, I will give you explanation of “Pixton”.
