“Your passion is contagious“ (Kittle 61).
As future English teachers, many of us enjoy literature, but many students have not developed a love for it yet or have been so deeply discouraged in the past that they have given up trying. My role as an English teacher is to have a passionate joy embracing my students when I talk about a book. My attitude toward a book influences theirs whether I can see it or not. We are the guiding light for our kids!
