Many of my students nsist that 'they had never before bee taught the difference between its and it's. Apostrophes for contra ons and apostrophes for • < • .- -. es were compete mysteries to -most of them. I tried and tried to • . r away .some of the fog.

You would have thought I had as .• them to jump off a high building. i e pain would be the same, they ass ed me. Finally the day came for : peech- ed to begin. The first few w hesi- tant. Then the topics beca more and more interesting. The p • nta- tions became more enthusi tic as each student tried to t' his predecessor. The visual aids • . me better and better. One stude even brought in a live tarantula an ave a fascinating talk in his pet's bits. Slowly but surely things . • : n a improve. The class clown gave : e)} cellent, well -researched speec of dealing with grief and death. ur ly girl with a chip on a shoulder ht\ had done nothing but grumble in the back corner, started smiling at me itr, the halls. The boy who had made an effort to skip classes started showing up, and on time, too! Another boy who has miserably failed his first written assignment asked me if he could re- write it. This time he would use a dic- tionary, he promised. And some students even admitted that guessing which grammar rule applied in which case could almost be interesting. Well, we're on the home stretch now. Just a few more classes and my first term as an instructor at Fan- ' shawe College will be over. If the students have learned just half as much from me as I have learned from them, then they'll be doing alright. It has certainly been an experience. I walked in last January thinking that these college students -would be keen and eager and want to learn. I ex- pected to find them hanging on my every word. Boy, was I naive. ` I have been teaching Communica- tion to business students. Itis basical- ly an English'course, consisting of grammar, punctuation, spelling, let- ter writing, report writing and public speaking. I quickly learned that just because I enjoy writing and the trap- pings that go with it, doesn't mean that the rest of the world does. If fact, I quickly learned that business students hate English courses. In high school, these students excelled in Math and related courses. Most of them did not do well in English and many of them had never studied any grammar. If they had studied gram- mar, it had not been since grade three. And they hate grammar. Un- fortunately, Communications is a compulsory part of -their business pro- gram, but for them, it is a very low priority. For the first month I was totally overwhelmed. it was a struggle to keep ahead in the text book and keep up with the marking: When I learned that most of my students hated com- ing to Communications class, hated the assignments, and hated me for be- ing a grammar teacher, it got a little depressing to say the least. It has been a challenge to convince them that to be employabte,, they must be able to write. The vv//riting skills in my classes range from those who are quite articulate to those who are next to illiterate. I think I finally convinced them that to get a job, they had to produce a well-written resume and a decent application letter. We worked on letters and resumes and at last I seemed to have sparked some interest. Then we went on to job interview techniques which also seemed to hold their interest. But in between the "good" topics, I tried to include sotme grammar lessons. Most of the students balked. i was very discouraged one weekend when my sister, who teaches grade four, was visiting. i was work- ing on a lesson on the difference bet - Kirktbn-Woodham Optimist Annual ' 11/()11 All you can eat April 26, 1986 s - 7:30 p.m. Kirkton-Woodham Community Centre Advance Tickets only Adults *1.00, Children 12 and under 104.00 Proceeds for Youth Betterment For tickets call Larry Lynn 229-8276 Registration For Dashwood Area Mens and Ladies Slow Pitch Teams Sign up sheets located at Merner's, Doug and Nancy's General Store, - Dashwood, Harvey Ratz, Shipka and IGA Grand Bend.
