Johnny was a 9-year-old boy who lived in a suburban neighbourhood of the coastal city of Dublin. Every year, he wished for a white Christmas, dreaming of snow-covered streets and frosty mornings. But in his town, Christmas was cold—sometimes frosty but hardly ever snowy. Living by the sea, snow was just a dream.
I lived in Cardiff as an adult during the 1980s and 1990s but my ties to the city go back to my early childhood. My father was from Canton. No, he was not Chinese; Canton is a well-known area of Cardiff and has nothing to do with Canton, China.
Learning English as a foreign language may seem unimportant to students when their exposure to all things English is limited to just a few classroom hours a week. We believe it is important to help students realise that the language they study in the classroom is connected to a whole world outside the classroom – a world of different English speaking cultures, which is often hard for them to experience directly.
