Good Points

Here are some nice things I learned from this course about myself:

I am, apparently, unusually good at spelling. My fellow trainees were surprised at the words I was able to easily spell out loud during a game that we were playing during a grammar session.

Also, I talk and write clearly. One of my instructors if from England and loves to poke fun at American accents and "Americanisms," and told me one afternoon that I shouldn't get nervous when teaching, that I know my stuff and that I speak very well. He then raised an eyebrow and commented "Dare I say it...even for an American." My students were puzzled by accent: it's clearly not English but they didn't think it sounded perfectly American either.
