"Right now our exercises take the form of imitating all the mistakes that a
Dutchman would make when speaking English."

If you want to hear the mistakes an Englishman makes when trying to speak 
Dutch or German, you could just listen to me!! :)

In LL-L "Education" 2005.07.13 (07) Ron intimates that
<*Now* you tell me, now that
I have a foot out the door and don't get to enroll and disrupt your classes.

What a lucky escape you had!    ;-)

My answer to this is: Maar ik houd van oproerkraaiers in de klas. Die maken
het de moeite waard. Jacqueline

Hoi, Jacqueline!

Easy for you to say now that you've escaped a teacher's nightmare.

Maar serieus geloof ik dat je van de kleine minderheid van leraren bent die 
"vroegrijpe" leerlingen waardeert en die soort kan afhandelen. Verder 
probeer ik onlangs "creatieve stilte" en ootmoed te beoefenen, heb dus 
misschien mijn "terreurjaren" ontgroeid.

By the way, it seems to me that Dutch opportunities at PCC could do with a 
bit more visibility.  They didn't show when recently I did a web search for 
such opportunities in the US, and they didn't even show up yesterday when I 
poked around the PCC website.  (Or is this intended to keep classes small?) 
I know several people in the greater Seattle area that would be interested 
in Dutch classes on various levels.

Groeten,
Reinhard/Ron
