I was a bit horrified by the first sentence, "The English language needs to be simplified and...", Yeah, isn't it really amazing that someone can write about language without nuance or knowledge - thinking it just a mechanical lego set? And even ...

Why do you sit in your room? Do you write? Meditate? Do you study or just rest? Who knows? For I have never spied on you. But sometimes, late at night, you call me and we go out to walk because the sky is full of stars.

Thanksgiving Day - Poetry

I don't share much of myself here. But I do believe I should and will try to open up more....I've no secrets :)

Today, while searching for some other poetry, I came across one of my own poems! Wow! Yeah, I wrote poetry for many years. Essays too. Published in small journals (big in Canada but small comparatively). I had a head on me as big as a moose and really thought that "I was it". Ah, the vagrancies and lightness of being - that is youth!

However, the poem is about Thanksgiving. Also, qui… Continue

The Dimensions of the Present Moment.

When I was a young(er) teacher, quite cut off and alone in a town in the Czech Rep. -- one of the books that were my best friends was "The Dimensions of the Present Moment" - a collection of essays by the Czech immunologist / poet , Miroslav Holub (more on him HERE). In one essay, he outlined how each breath / line of poetry is less than 3 seconds or 1 moment. He continued to outline how a moment can be defined as 3… Continue

Inspiration for other students

A PERFECT TOEFL SCORE.
I read this report in today's newspaper. Although, I'm firmly against this kind of test taking / measurement hysteria (English ability should be judged functionally and not absolutely) - this story really hit the right tone. So I made a karaoke to share and allow teachers to share. Find the original article HERE. (click on the video to go to the full screen v… Continue

In Praise of Backpacking English Teachers

I think backpacking English teachers get a bad rap. Truly they do. And especially from the more "senior" and "accomplished/established" members of our profession - ELT (English Language Teaching). Why so? I have only praise for this unseasoned, fertile, fecund and procreant soil of our profession. So I sing… Continue
