I teach through stories and one of the most important stories that I share with all my students is the Secret to Learning. The secret is simply "finding a reason to care" about the subjects we study, and the learning we do. When we care we form stronger memory connections with the knowledge we hope to build our understanding with. Persuading students to care about the muddled and sometimes illogical language of English is a fun game for us to play and yet another story to tell.
