My son is in college and works for a nationwide bank - and also
has his own column writing for a car magazine!
He and my daughter are both very talented, gifted writers!
For this reason, I was both shocked and also impressed when my son told
me that he wanted me to help him with his vocabulary!
Even though he is working daily on his education and holds a great
job with the bank, he still sees the need to continue to improve himself!
He said "I
want to sound smarter!"
I was elated over this!
I developed a plan with him where I would send him 2-3 words daily
via email and give him the definition and then he would have to write 2-3
variations of sentences for each word. It was so much fun for both of
us. We laughed at the funny sentences and I was also very impressed with his
very serious side of writing as well.
It was a delightful education for him and I enjoyed it immensely!
Even with his attending college and working in the most
professional environment with other professionals coming in and offering him
employment opportunities - he still sees the need to improve himself - for his
continued success!
