Welcome to Growth Spurt

Spring classes are great. In January you come to class in the dark, braving the cold, buried inside heavy coats, thick scarves, and ice-breaking boots. In April, you come in the evening light, cotton shirt open to the breeze, flip flops flapping on the walk. In that thirteen week interval, you will accomplish so much: make friends, correct grammar, plant and develop ideas in clear, even fluid, English. You will transplant the thoughts blossoming daily in your native language to English, and watch them bloom.

I look forward to being part of the process.
