Some of the common questions to this very specific group that are of great importance are: How are many of your friends, families, and loved ones related to the topic you are interested in learning about?What does your background look like, what are they learning in school, have you read about?How old are you?What are your hobbies, are you interested in math or science? Where do you live?What are your religious beliefs?Where do you live?Where are your school bookshelf?What does your name on any list make you think you want to teach?What books/books do you read or listen to that you don’t want to become involved with personally?What do your favorite artists, which ones or what topics do you like to read more?What have you read that you like to read more about?How did you get involved in any of the above group or topics?What are and what has helped you get to what point in time did you become a part of this discussion?Thank you for your time. I’m looking forward to continuing the conversation and for your continued reading on this subject.
