ESL can be fun!
Back in 1977 I got my undergraduate degree in Spanish...(But) since then, I have fallen in love with reading English---be it poetry, representational fiction, biography, philosophy, you name it; but most of all the short story-novel media. This means native English authors (eg. Hemingway, Eliot, Lawrence) and folks who have their art in English translation (Hesse, Mann, Jung). My interest, activity was not academic in nature, but escapist. I am also somewhat of an amateur poet and story wr... Read more

All kids should learn, let's try to make it fun!
I became a second grade teacher in 2014 and it completely changed my life. I had enjoyed jobs before, but I had never felt like it was a "calling" until I began teaching. As a second grade teacher I was able to actually make a difference in children's lives, and that was a feeling like no other. My absolute favorite part of the job was creating new and interesting ways to teach. Outside the box methods became a specialty of mine. Now when I teach it has a high emphasis on fun, rewards, and ga... Read more
