I should have put the word 'teaching' in the title of this blog. The point of my work is to figure out how I can use what my students already possess (knowledge, experience, and yes, faith) to improve and enhance their writing in English. Today I am 'back to class' at my university. I'll be teaching reading this semester - and with any luck the students will learn to LOVE reading as I do. Unlikely, I know... but a girl can dream. I asked the class today to raise their hands if they read for pleasure. Silence, puzzled expressions... and then a small, dislbelieveing question from the back "Do you mean in English?". I'd better get to work.
