From our hands to yours: Poems by ESOL students, Mana College, Porirua

from
our hands to yours is a selection of poems from five years of poetry
workshops with students in English for Speakers of Other Languages (ESOL)
classes at Mana College in Porirua.



The students
write about subjects, from grandparents, to wishes, to how they seem to other
people, in poems that are moving, charming, funny and sometimes awkward. The
students are from Samoa, Syria, Fiji, Vietnam, Tonga, Tokelau, Philippines,
Myanmar, and Colombia. Some are English beginners; others are more fluent.



It is an
inspiring collection for students and teachers, but also a delightful
collection of poems for the general reader.
