Using Video in ESL

That is the name of the class I am taking for the next eight weeks on Tuesday nights. Last night was pretty weird. I did not know how to act or what to say. I had so many weird people in my class. People with weird names ( I love those people though), people with awkward social skills, and people who talk way too much. I was torn between being nice, being sassy and being quiet. Being quiet just isn't an option since there is only eight classes and participation is 30% of my grade. I brought cookies to class, to make a good first impression as well as to be nice. One thing I've learned is that when you don't like someone, be nice to them, that way they can never say anything mean about you and therefore you have less of a reason to dislike them. Anyway, felt slightly long but they always are. It's three and a half hours. I didn't make any new friends. There were about seven new people, that is people who I did not already know, out of twenty total students,  including myself. My teacher is foreign which I always think is weird because they teach ESL but it also makes sense since English Language Learners know more about the English language than native speakers. And they know what works best because of their own experience. However, I think some of the students in my class will distract me and cause me to shut up most of time. Okay, enough about me. Go out and live. Do a favor for a friend. K
