I loving teaching. I think that I should prepare very detailed for the input part of language teaching in order to encourage and lead students to output what they comprehend and learn through this training.
My students and I are always happy the rewrite the textbooks we have learned. It is a real blessing when we realize those materials exist just for improvement of our language proficiency.
