"Scholars, drunk on words and obscure meanings,
Weave a tangled web of concordances.
Simple practice never occurs to them.
Give up education, and the world will be better."
I much prefer to think of myself as a facilitator, rather than an educator. In language learning and communication, 'simple practice' must rule the day. In working with my students I strive to give them a window into my language the way I learned it: with intuition, and with enjoyment. If I can share with them my own delight in learning, we all will win.
