Robots Are Now Teaching English!

　　Get ready. Robots are about to come into our classroom. From Japan to the United States, schools are putting English-speaking robots in front of their students. The young students say that the robots are fun, but are these children really learning anything?
　　I don’t think a computer will ever be able to do what a teacher does.Each student is different, and a teacher can try his or her best to make every student understood.
