WHAT'S YOUR NAME?



Vicki continues to teach English classes at the Academia at Cristo Redentor. She really enjoys the students and they enjoy her classes. They alway have a "deer in headlights" expression when she catches them off guard in church and greets them in English! In class they expect it, but elsewhere is another matter! Sometimes, with a big smile, she'll say, " How are you?" and get a response of, "My name's Walter." After a laugh, she will point out the critical word was "How," not "Who." Walter grins broadly and silently vows NOT to make that mistake again! Impishly, Ron will use English when he meets one of Vicki's students, too. That keeps them on their toes! They find the classes fun-and challenging!! We are considering offering some classes for others in the parish sometime.
