A few days ago I bid my students farewell for the summer, but not before taking pictures! I think the photographs show how fun-loving my students are. I've really enjoyed working with them and look forward to next semester, which begins in September. (Between now and then it's administrative work and "research.")
The first group of students pictured here with me will not be here in the fall. They, along with 32 others from Chubu University, will spend a semester at Ohio University, being taught by my old colleagues. I truly love how small the world is.
I had seven classes this semester: reading (x2), listening and speaking, reading and writing, story writing (fiction), conversations around the world (basic conversation class), and news casts (where students produced various types of news programs and TV commercials in English). Fun times!
Thanks for sharing these glimpses of your newest adventure - in Japan! So sorry we couldn't connect when we touched down in that country last month. Hope to see you in the 'burg next trip this direction. Enjoy your new setting and students!
ReplyDeleteGlad you started writing again!
ReplyDeleteIt's great to see your students, Cynthia, and be reminded how -many- of them you interacted with.
