This is my first year teaching at Nutana and I am very fortunate to be doing my internship here. During the first quarter I taught ELA 20, and loved every minute of it! I am very excited to begin teaching ELA B 30 this Quarter to all of you. I am excited to get to know each and every one of you! I don’t know the majority of you. I don’t know what you like, what your interests are, or what your plans are for the future. In your letter, I’d like you to tell me about yourself, as an individual and as a student. So, please be kind and respond to this letter. In your letter, talk about your life. What is your family like? Do you have any brothers or sisters? What are your interests? Do you have any special talents? What are your likes and dislikes? Do you have any pets? Can you tell me something interesting about yourself? Tell me as much as you would like, no one else will be seeing these letters and there is little sense in writing them if you are not honest. What are your hopes and plans for the future? How have you managed in English up to this point? Have you been successful? Where have you had difficulties? Do you like reading? What about writing or public speaking? How is your spelling? What would you like to improve on this year? How can I help you? Write as much as you wish and hand it in at the end of class. After I read your letters, I will place them in a file. They will be given back to you at the end of the Quarter. Thank You! I look forward to reading your letters!
