Do not train children to learning by force and harshness, but direct them to it by what amuses their minds, so that you may be better able to discover with accuracy the peculiar bent of the genius of each.

When I signed up for this class there was only one other person that was enrolled. Dr. Stoicovy then informed me that there was a good chance that the class would be cancelled due to the low enrollment. Thankfully, we have the minimum of five students to keep the class open. I was afraid that the cancellation of this class would set me back another semester, now I am one step closer to completing my Masters in TESOL. I certainly have my plate full this semester with three classes, a full-time educator and mother. It was a great first day of class and I look forward to learning and sharing with my fellow classmates for we have a good mix of educators. This is my first class with Dr. Rivera and I look forward to learning from her and what it takes to be an exceptional ESL teacher.
I am so glad that Marvin and I signed up for this class. This Spring semester did not offer the classes I need to finish on time. You'll be fine with Dr. Rivera as our instructor. I have had her as an instructor in the past and she is very supportive. We'll make it a fun semester.
ReplyDeleteI was also happy that the class was not cancelled. I need to take two electives for my Masters and wanted to take an ESL related class since it relates to my current position. I think that I was the first to register and I kept checking to see if more people signed up. I was looking at what else I could take just in case this class was cancelled.
