HAPPINESS IS LEARNING A NEW LANGUAGE.


Well GOOD AFTERNOON!!!!

Above you will find the information
concerning the ESL classes
offered  for the 2018 fall (autumn)session.
The only thing I am keeping is this image
that I found this last year on Google images.
It got my attention and I decided to use it!

 

WHY DO YOU ASK?

There are three principal reasons
why I loooove this idea or prediction
of 'making friends with...'
I think that it is based on reality and
 I'm talking here about facts.

Number one fact: my experience as a teacher.
Some of you students have really become friends
 in the classroom and outside of it also.
You are present and helpful and love
 to encourage your fellow classmates
in their own need to achieve their personal goals.
 I love to see you being open to this mutual experience.
 It makes me feel really great as a teacher
 and also as a person!!!

Number two fact: you are meeting native speakers of English
 and embracing this adventure.
 You are open to speaking English the best way you can
because you have found confidence in the way
 you personally express  your thouhgts and opinions
using  this second language.

 No more running away from these opportunities ;)
They are real life experiences  and they are often
unexpected situations you find yourself in.
You are open to "I know I can do this!"
WHO KNOWS, you maybe could meet potential friends.

Number three fact: well it's more of a personal experience.
 I too as a teacher have met some really great persons
through the ESL sessions and  we have also become friends.
This is one of the best parts of teaching and coaching!

I love English!
I love teaching ...
I love teaching English
and even more,
I love my students!

As always,
SUZANNE
