Things like your subject

area, you can

say I hated history when I was a kid or I loved
Maths when I was a kid, why doesn't this kid

like Maths.

I mean you hate Maths, right.

No, I don't hate Maths ..... certainly

I mean I know that the analysis of my own school
days and stuff like that was very important in

у thinking about teaching actually and why I

was put off and scared to death by the whole
idea of Maths but would liked to have done Maths,
you know, would have liked to have been efficient

and I think, but why was that?

I think I can

pinpoint very clearly that it was to do partly
with the teacher and the teaching method .....

The way I feel about that is like in my
English group, you know at the Institute there
is this whole thing about multi-cultural

education.

We're all being encouraged to think

about it and for me, I mean, when we were doing

these exercises

putting us in the position

of kids at school which makes you remember what

it's 1 ike .

I mean for me I went to school in

Glasgow when I moved here from the States and
it's really helpful for me to remember that
because I think it makes me much more sympathetic

to kids in the same position.

I think it's good.

The way I felt in that group is that everybody
is being very theoretical about it and it should

be

our experience and I wish there were more

black people in the Institute.
