It's Tougher on the Other Side of the Desks

I just finished conducting my first Speaking Tips class for ESL learners - it was exhilarating and exhausting at the same time. It's like any organized gathering though - as long as you do 90% of your work BEFORE the event even starts, everything will turn out all right.
I learned a number of things and I read short speeches (Including that of a 1775 letter by an unnamed Indian to the Governor of Massachusetts, which was a harbinger of guerrilla warfare), which I would have never perused before, so there are silver linings all over the place.
