What happened (as short or as long as you like, but be specific): Not a bad class.. it took some work, but I won them over.. a couple folks ability were too high.. they can see that I know how to get into the nuts and bolts, and for the ones who speak pretty well, it’s tough to retrain. Difficulty, of course, with Z and G for Vietnamese speakers.. but they’re good and seem excited. Two of the folks who have the early shift were there, but needed to leave early. The rest of the folks were like.. can we do this in the afternoon, please? I will see if there’s room to shift that around.

What happened (as short or as long as you like, but be specific): Today, more people! Two new Spanish speakers. Today I saw some of the lower skill folks, Vietnamese folks, really show some improvement; and some of the higher skill ones start to see how their habits will take some work to change. Still early, it takes time for folks to warm up. One of the Vietnamese speakers was really watching the clock, the work together ethic really needs to be built up. It would be great to have an assistant with this one. Did the same things, but took them a bit further, feeling a little bit of the hollow echo chamber feel you get when people’s brains/realities are changing.. but I think it will come around. Next week, more dictation.

What happened (as short or as long as you like, but be specific): The group is really warming up, and more folks came, a very good sign. It was interesting to talk about the lunar calendar, and today we really started getting into details of what happens on their line. I found out they make 2000 cases a day, first the scaler weighs the ingredients.. it was interesting enough that we went past a few minutes and had to stop abruptly so folks could go to work.February 27, 2015 at 5:58 pm #4836WebMaestrexKeymasterLesson Title: Broom & Dustpan

What happened (as short or as long as you like, but be specific): Though the group was small, this was an amazing class one of the most productive and engaged that I’ve ever had. It was just two learners at first and we really dug into pronunciation. One learner was just asking what is that, what is that? It was great. We went into the lobby and used the pictures on the wall to identify workplace objects.

What happened (as short or as long as you like, but be specific): a good class building off of yesterday’s pronunciation work. More participants and our lowest skill learner was just nailing it on the pronunciation-it was kind of amazing, it appears that the folks with higher communication skills have more trouble changing their behavior (ossification).
