So every Korean student has an English name at this school, or at any English private school (called "hogwans") like mine. They get their name either by picking it themselves, or a teacher giving them one.
Most kids are your generic English names: Sally, Jacob, Jack, Claire. However, one student of mine has a name that rises above the rest. His name is Tupac. He insisted on it.
That, friends and neighbors, is what we in the biz call an "Automatic A+."
i can't help but laugh when i think of a small korean boy insisting on being called tupac. awesome. A+ fo sho
ReplyDeleteAny student who chooses the name "Andy Reid" gets automatically sent back a grade?
