Reflection about Zinn's questions

What make you happy at WH? When did you feel sad(or)lonely? What kind of things make you bored?

I am happy both inside and outside class. Inside class, I feel really good when my students understand my lesson or make a connection with what we are learning to their own lives and experiences. It's always so interesting to learn about how each of their minds works in a different way and interprets a reading or a movie or a picture many different ways. Outside of class, I really enjoy sitting and talking after dinner and playing football in the afternoons. It is when I feel most connected to my students and when we can relate to each other as human beings. Thank you for those moments!

I feel sad when I feel like I am teaching in a way that is confusing for my students. I hope I can find new ways to make my lesson clearer for everyone. I also hope my students feel comfortable asking for my help. I want them to know that I am here to answer their questions and that I love doing it! Sometimes in the evening, I am very tires, but I will try my best to help them as much as possible.

Thanks again Zinn for the interesting question!
