Good news: There are 22 students in my class and as of today 21 of them have started on their blog writing adventure....You are invited to click on their names for their interesting contributions....the idea is to report on a regular basis and thus witness the individual progress - so welcome to blogspot and to our new platform: the world of bloggers.
You are also encouraged to click on the Voice of America site....it provides us with lots of articles. A learner can not only read and print these texts...many of them are also available in audio format - in other words: it is not only possible to READ them but also to HEAR these documents in clearly spoken and authentic American English - what a great opportunity for all of us to improve on our present skills......I told my students to be proactive and to GO for it! They heard me say this many times - it was even on the blackboard under Habit number 7: Sharpen the Saw .....but who of them will follow through?? In other words: who will be ready...?
