Two
of my advanced students, Pierre and Gabriel, stopped by my class and
started to talk to me, in French, about the class I was teaching. The
class was surprised to hear them speaking to me in French, out of the
blue. After I told him that he told the
class: "Take French III! It is awesome." One of
my French II students asked if he was in French III. He replied "No. I am
in French V! I have been in French since the first day of high
school. This is my home. This is my family. This is where I
belong." The kids then asked him to talk to me in French
and both he
and Gabriel immediately started talking with me about the 1946 version of Beauty
and the Beast" that we finished earlier that day. We talked for a few minutes and then they
were off.
Their enthusiasm lit my my class as they were passing along their passion.
This
is why I love teaching! This is why I
teach! My kids are awesome!
