Topic: Teaching

10-second review: What is teaching all about? “It’s about loving to teach and loving to learn.”

Source: L J Rodriguez. English Journal (January 2005), 45. A publication of the National Council of Teachers of English (NCTE).

Comment: I sometimes think that English teachers forget the “continuing-to-learn” part of teaching. Not only can they learn from their students by engaging in action research (research in the classroom) but they can continue to learn by reading literature and by reading professional journals. That’s why I am writing this blog and others (“Books and Ideas” and “10-second Literature,” “English Updates,” “English Education Archives,” and “Teaching English, How To….”). RayS.
