In every ESL class, my students answer these questions:
Name?
Job/Major?
From?
Live?
Hobbies?
Go ahead and answer. Let me get to know you.
I'm going to answer them myself now:
My name is Deidrea. (dee-drah) On Wattpad, I'm known as FireTiger8.
Fire Tiger is my Chinese zodiac. 8 is my lucky number. It's also the number of new beginnings in the Bible.
I majored in computer science, but I don't work with computers anymore. I wanted to focus on my writing, so I quit working with computers a year ago. I'm now an ESL teacher.

Let's talk about how to become the best writers we can be.
