But, when I gave him an explanation, he then talked over me complaining about something else. He wasn't curious. He just wanted to derail class. <br /><br />(I like students who are genuinely curious. I will go off on tangents for them. See tomorrow's post.)

No one wants to be alone with the teacher or in the class after class hours.<br /><br />But I totally agree with Jonah. The French language is complicated and confusing. Why can't each letter be pronounced? Then again, I love that words from other languages can be found in English. It makes other languages more approachable. i.e. "I already know that word because it's what I'd use in English! Yay!" :)Mandyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00415510811585368037noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8925412579189247293.post-85589035547198611352016-06-30T08:39:36.991-07:002016-06-30T08:39:36.991-07:00He didn't want to discuss them, just complain ...He didn't want to discuss them, just complain about them.Alex J.
