    noun ( pl. -men)
    a first-year student at a university, college, or high school.  3 classes of Bethany’s this semester.

    Yep, you guessed it, I’m teaching freshmen this semester!  On top of 5 classes of Master’s students, I’ll be teaching freshman English majors on a sister campus of Nanjing Unv. of Sci & Tech.

    I’m super excited!  Why?  Well, because they’re young and I love the excitement they have.  And it turns out I’m the first foreign teacher they’ve EVER had.  Which results in situations like this:

    They all took out their phones to grab a picture of their crazy new foreign teacher.  So, I gave ‘em a little show… a pose here, a twirl there, and the crowd when nuts.

    I LOVE freshmen!
