33、 the USA for 17 years, I had no worry at all about my ability to plant in my students enthusiasm for the literature of my mother tongue.

34、them to sit down again, but once that embarrassment was over, I quickly calmed down and launched into what I thought was a fact-packed lecture, sure to gain their respectperhaps even their admiration.

35、ishment. My students kept journals, however, and as I read them, the rosy glow was gradually replaced by an overwhelming sense of frustration.

I thought a teachers job was to raise interesting questions and provide enough background so t hat student
