Balance

I have started to teach less each day. That's not exactly right...I teach from fewer books and I take more time before I move on. Today, though, the class tired of doing pronunciation after an hour and was ready to move on. Maybe teaching is like tai chi; the slower the better. I'm ont sure. I know it's hard to learn a language and it takes lots of time. I need to give my students more time to work and use the language. I think that's what I am learning now. Time will tell.
