You'll Have the Guts

Bob Gannon's adventures are so inspiring that they'll make you want to lose your fears and really spring into action to pursue your dreams. Fellow ESL teacher at SDCCD and a professional freelancer Mimi Pollack has just come out with this online recount of Bob's animal encounters in southern Africa. She and I have been working together to try to get Bob to come as a guest speaker in our respective classrooms this spring. We firmly believe that Bob's appearance will surprise and delight students and thus enhance their classroom experience. He will get them interested in hearing and practicing such mottoes as "Don't say no until you know;" and "Make your desires greater than your fears."
