Today was the first time I've been a Russian language classroom since 1977. I'm acutely aware of how much I don't know, never knew and how much I've forgotten. But, it's only the first day, so I'll try to just take it a little bit at a time. But teaching me (or re-teaching me) a language, is feeling something like trying to teach a bear to play the accordian.
Our teacher is an expert, and she went into some depth on several grammar points this morning. This was helpful, but a very different approach that I would take with my English language learning students. It will be interesting to compare and contrast the methodology as the month goes on.
Liza arrived today, and she doesn't look right without a SmartBoard behind her.
