I enjoyed class tonight because I actually enjoy learning about English grammar, formally. I agree with my fellow English L1 classmates, that often, you intuitively know grammar, but can’t really explain it. I think I’ve become a much better teacher having studied grammar on a more structural basis. I also very much enjoyed the presentation on Chinese characters, and it made me consider how this very different representation of sounds and words could lead to many different ways of processing ideas and language. It was interesting and the character worksheets (PDF files on D2L) helped to enhance my understanding. Thanks to my classmates who put this together!
