He is indeed a very inspirational man.
He inspires and enthuses. He does it apparently naturally and without patronising.
He alsao inspires confidence, and without unduly leaning on the children he lets them know they are safe enough to 'open up' to him. He is certainly gifted.


 Last night's programme  focussed on speaking skills.

However one thing both amused and annoyed me -
> dropped letter Ts all over the place
> rising inflections at the end of sentences (as is questioning)
> the word "like" peppered throughout every sentence they spoke
> the word 'fink' being used instead of 'think'
Yet none of these things were corrected or picked up on.
When I heard some of the teachers speaking I began to realise why some of them were allowing bad speaking - because the teachers were not that good themselves.
I know language and speech changes, so maybe I am just old-fashioned and should just be ignored.
But I did expect that one place where some guidance might be given would be in a school.
Apparently not!


But I applaud Gareth Male. A very inspiring man.
