week 9

This week we are talking about nature versus nurture. Tell us about a characteristic that you inherited from one of your parents that you like. This could be a physical feature or personality trait. For me, my father was always very honest. He didn't say a lot, but whatever he did say could be trusted. I think that I'm like that too. Physically, I look a lot like my mother. Sometimes when I catch a quick glimpse in the mirror of myself, I think it's my mom! People have always told my mother that she looks young for her age, so I like that I look like her.

Week 8

Next week some new students will be joining our class. Remembering what your first week was like, share with them 1 or 2 pieces of advice to help them adapt quickly.

Week 7

We have a long Spring Break coming up. What are your plans for the break? Are you the type of person that likes to fill each day with activities or will you mostly rest? For me, it will be a combination of both. I'm going to take the TOEFL ibt. I would like to teach some SAL electives about the TOEFL and this would help me do a better job of that. I'll also play a lot of tennis. I compete on a tennis team that starts in April. With my foot hurt right now, I'm not able to practice. I need to get my game back! What about you?
