Hi there! I'm a native English speaker looking to teach others English while maybe learning something new along the way. I currently teach English for Speakers of Other Languages in the South Carolina public schools, grades K-12. My students are some of the most interesting, amazing, inspiring, and enjoyable people I've ever had the good fortune to meet! I would like to work with others who want to learn or perfect their English. I also am interested in improving my fairly bad Spanish, even worse German, and non-existant Chinese. :)

    BOOK READING PRESENTATION

    (It's an oral presentation)
    Good afternoon, my name is Laia.
    First of all, let me thank you all for coming here today. If you would like to ask me anything after my presentation, please feel free.
    The topic of my presentation is my experience reading the book “The Red House.”  It was written by Mark Haddon, an English writer, illustrator, and screenwriter.
    “The Red House” is based in the holiday of a family who spends seven days in a farmstead located in a valley of the Welsh border. I am not going to explain all the situations the family experiences during the holiday; but in general, I think the aim of the book, in addition to entertain, is to help the reader realise that nobody is perfect. All of us have our problems, our experiences and our different points of view. 

    Regarding my experience, I recognised I had never read a book in English. So when I started it, I thought that I wasn’t going to understand anything. At first this was true, but then, as I read the book, I understood it better.
    I also didn't know all the words, nor did I look them up in the dictionary unless the word appeared many times. But the context helped me to understand them. In my opinion, the book was difficult to understand, but the story was simple, so this helped me.
    To conclude, these are my feelings about reading the book.  As I said before, if you have any questions, feel free to let me know.
