Funny, I dropped out of high school when I was fifteen and not until I was twenty five did I attempt college.
My actual first class was English as a second language, no lie. Now of course I was born here, but yeah my spelling was atrocious --- did I spell that right?
Anyway, the old man who taught the class was very patient with the class and kind.
Back then I thought, oh my god I got a long way to go if I'm ever going to get a college degree... It seemed daunting to me. Now I look back on those days and laugh.
The teacher actually took me by the hand and told me I didn't belong in the class, but actually it was a stepping stone for me looking back.
Anyhow I did great graduating top of the class with an advanced four year degree, and afterwards I left grad school midway due to the demands in my job/ I'm a self learner now any way so that doesn't much bother me.
I give you high praise for teaching such an important class.
Thank you !
Peace!

my first marriage was kind of like an ESL class my personal favorite was crotch for crouch and the ensuing explanatory charades that had me rolling in laughter.
Thanks for the giggle.

| This is so well constructed, clever and really very humorous. Needs to be printed off and dispersed to all teachers of English as a second language. |
