As an English teacher, I have scope to be entertaining. I pity the Math teacher, who just has to have the kids slog through the hard stuff all of the time.

I forgot to mention that in a couple of the classes where the students wanted to talk over the song, I started signing along, and everyone watched in surprise, hooked in.

I constantly look for things THE BEST teachers do, and attempt to put them into my teaching, too. What I lack in skill, I try to make up with enthusiasm. Sometimes, it's enough.
