I hope you've recovered by now and that London is getting back to normal after the storm and utility outages. I'm sitting here looking at the TESL Ontario conference "call for presentations" and thinking, "nope, not this time." I think it's time for me to do lino cuts, make clothes, garden and go for nature walks. --KMKellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08182881635816655061noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7828415387916366867.post-84946715863311240212018-05-08T04:36:12.866-07:002018-05-08T04:36:12.866-07:00Hey don't be so hard on yourself - we are our ...Hey don't be so hard on yourself - we are our own worst critic, eh? Your keynote address was warmly received. We have heard nothing but positive comments from our attendees - but yeah, just like with our adult learners, sometimes you focus so much on reading the audience that you over-read or mis-interpret cues. For me, it was a morning that started at 3:00am (thanks to the previous night's windstorm and a Rogers outage that precluded me from putting finishing touches on my presentation and report). Keynotes are often at the tail end of a packed and exciting day. Your efforts in engaging the audience were appreciated and we'd gladly have you back anytime.Jen Ahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10896262804990991117noreply@blogger.com
