I'm actually enjoying what I'm doing these day, not that I didn't enjoy teaching but this type of teaching is what I've been really aiming to do. I started off as a curriculum researcher and a developer for this academy last December and ended up teaching it this March.



So what am I doing these days?

Well, I'm teaching but also taking care of a library: we're a English library academy, where kids come and read and talk about what they've read.

We have Group Mentoring (GM) classes for lower levels and Book Club (BC) classes for upper levels: GMs are more comprehension bases and BCs are more discussion based.





Rather than reading all the classics we're concentrating on more contemporary works so that the kids become more interested in reading and learn through them. I truly believe that you learn a lot through reading and I've personally experienced it when I was learning English.

We have  two section of the library and one is for BC and the other for GM. I still need to make the book organizing more easier and efficient for kids to find but besides that I think we have a pretty good thing going on.

A letter from Minneapolis...

written on March 5th... soon after I received a letter from aunt Frances... it's been on my draft bin and I'm finally uploading it even though it's not complete.

I can't remember the last time I received an actual handwritten letter. It's been such a long time since I've posted a mail or received a personal letter that I've almost forgot what a joyous and pleasant feeling it is. As the world's technology is in such a race of developing little devices and getting messages to the other party in the least time and excess speed, the effort of writing a letter and putting a stamp on it and into the mail box had become obsolete.

I received a letter from aunt Frances, whom I'm starting to get to know. It's weird because I didn't really know about her until later and it's also kind of sad that we've never met. Hopefully, I'll be able to meet her soon though. I would love to meet her because first of all she's a writer and it's very thrilling to learn that there is someone who is into literature in my family. It's something I can relate to..
