Adopt a Young Learner

I was so excited to see that an amazing new teacher joined MyEC today. Greta Sandler inspired me from the moment I read a guest blog post she wrote called Love them Before you Know them. Some people are just meant to be teachers and she is one of them. Just look at the quotes on her profile and you will see that she is one of the world's "greats". Her blog About a Teacher is very inspiring. Why? She shares real life stories.

 

Do you think blogging is difficult? Greta blogs with her young learners. In fact, many teachers are blogging with young learners using a site called Kid Blogs. I often leave comments on these blogs when Greta or another teacher puts out a #comments4kids request on twitter. It only takes a few moments, but you can make a child's day with a simple comment.

 

Are you interested in adopting a young ESL/EFL blogger?  Greta and I have talked about setting up something like this with the MyEC bloggers. I was inspired by her presentation at last year's Virtual Round Table conference. 

 

If you are interested in leaving comments for YL bloggers, leave your name below. When Greta and I finally get organized we'll match you up with a kid blogger.

  • Tara I would  like to give my name for adopting ESL/EFL Blogger.

    I am a teacher  for  kids and  it would  really be challenging and an  educational experience too.

  • @ Notears, Oh my God, how shy you're!

     







    I laughed my head off when I read your comments!

    Dear friend, I'm ready to take a test with you and I also assure that I won't cheat.

  • @ Notears,

     

    Oh my, how stubborn are you!!!!!!!!!

     

     





    I wish that Anele, Talibah and Rabab will come here and tell you the truth. Then and only then you'll realize how much better you're in comparison to me.

    But before they join us I request our respected teacher Tara, to tell you the truth.

    Please Ms. Tara, help me and tell Notears how good she is.
