I am excited about this project and hope you all enjoy participating this blog! I am looking forward to reading the blog postings by all of us in Lynn, Massachusetts and San Francisco, California. Soon you will meet the students in my class which is named Intermediate ESL Grammar 1. The students in this class come from 7 different countries, and they will introduce themselves to you.
On the left side of this blog, under About Us, you can read a little bit about about the two teachers, Kathie and Marcia.
I was born in Lynn, MA. I have four brothers, but no sisters. I went to college in Washington, DC for my bachelor's degree and Vermont for my master's degree (which is where Marcia and I met each other). Each time, I returned home to Lynn, so you can see I really enjoy living in this area. Lynn, MA has a very diverse population and is located on the Atlantic Ocean. In the 1900's, Lynn was the largest maufacturer of women's shoes in the world! Our college is surrounded by many old shoe factories which are now big apartment buildings. NSCC is in the downtown section of the city. Lynn is about 10 miles north of Boston, the capital of MA.
I have been teaching at North Shore Community College (NSCC) since 1989. There are about 350 students in the ESL Program here. We have classes in the day and the evening. Most of the ESL students, about two-thirds, attend class in the evening. Our class meets in the morning.
