What the Students Want to Know

In the class that's about to be cancelled, I gave them my bio (as in the Faculty Directory) and told them to write questions that aren't answered.  Here are some of their questions:

Do you have famely?  (spelled with e)
Who was the best student who did you teach?
Did you have any problems with some student?
Why do you like to write the fiction stories?
Is your famely support in your life?

What were your the most interesting situation from teaching in other countries?
What was your major in SF State Universtity.
I read about your interest--how do you find time for these all?
What do you tell us about such exotic country lke Tonga?
Can you give us advices how learn foreign language with success?
Wha were your impressions of teaching in Tonga?  How Later (?) students used English knowledge.
What was your most interesting an audventure in the countries where you taught?

What was your the most favarite subject when you studyed in college courses?
If you don't mind me asking, are you married?
What was your dream job when you were child?
Which part of English is the hardist part in your opinion?
Can you speak other language except French, Spanish?

I was impressed by some of their questions.  But two of the five students didn't hand them in!  This is kind of like what they say about the portions people eat.  Regardless of whether people are super-sized or given moderate amounts, they leave the same percentage.  Whether a class is large or tiny like this one, only 3/5 of the students turn in their work!

I don't think this is the kind of community-provided bench the SF Chronicle was talking about today in its article https://www.sfchronic...
