I’m currently perched on a very dignified bench in Brasenose College, Oxford, trying to look like I belong here. Am I studying at the university? Absolutely not. I’m here because I needed motivation. A push to keep me going as an English teacher with too many hats. So I applied for the English Language Teachers’ Summer Seminar at Oxford University – a two-week haven disguised as ‘professional development’. (Don’t tell anyone, but really it’s my version of a spa retreat . . . just with more grammar.)
A ‘typical’ day in my non-Oxford life is anything but typical . . .
