Caitlyn Jenner y’all! An inspiration. A visionary. A multi-hyphenate. What is @caitlynjenner ‘s favorite word and why? But first, here’s a little story.
As many of you know, I was an ESL (English as a Second Language) teacher in Japan for 10 years. I also co-authored a book with Eric Roth, (a USC Master Lecturer and Professor,) entitled, “Compelling Conversations: Japan.” (Available for hard-copy or digital download on Amazon.)
I wrote one, and starred in, three (3) TV shows in Japan. I had a show that received THE number ONE, highest Ratings in its time-slot.
On one particular TV show, I enjoyed teaching the viewers various colloquialisms, idioms and phrases. I would also do pronunciation exercises. Growing up in London, England, my mum would take me once a week to “elocution,” lessons. Since I have a fondness for words, as well as an affinity to Japanese students struggling with words that contain the letters, “L” or “R,” I would often over-exaggerate that particular word, and really have fun rolling the “Rs” or raising our tongue to our inner top teeth to pronounce words that begin with “L.” The extreme over-exaggeration would come off as playful, silly and funny. Anything for a good laugh, right! Goal: To make learning fun.
My intention in asking people what their favorite word is and why, is to both educate and entertain learners of the English language through my YouTube videos. Gotta make it fun and compelling. Far from didactic. My intention is to serve and pass on what I learned from my teachers with enthusiasm, coupled with bubbles. Big, wonderful, globes of bubbles that float up, just as kids’ eyes get big and bright when they look up in awe when Santa 🎅passes through the night sky. Wow. Fun and joy in learning!
Please be lovely and venture to my YouTube channel, GoShiggyGoCom to find out more. (Link in my above bio.)Thank you. Domo Arigato.
