NELP Orientation

We had orientation for NELP yesterday. I'm VERY happy that ELEVEN students came for NELP orientation. I think they will be a great class. I can already see that every student has something valuable and special to offer the class, and I can see that there will be a great variety of strengths and talents in the coming year. I'm REALLY looking forward to teaching this group of students.

Every one of my NELP classes has been special, each in a unique way. Each year, the atmosphere of the new class is a little different. Each class shares many qualities with the other classes, but often there's ONE quality that really stands out.

One of my NELP classes is the hardest working and most improved class of any group of students I've taught since I began teaching in 1992. One class is simply the nicest group of students. One class is so easy to teach because they enthusiastically jump right in and try whatever I ask them to try. Another class is so competitive and constantly push each other to do better. One class is without doubt the funniest group of students I've ever taught. As I say, they all share characteristics (for example, they're all very smart and very hard-working as a whole), but each has a special quality that stands out. I'm really looking forward to seeing how my new NELP class will shine in the coming year.
