Okay, so I have to say that your boyfriend is wrong in various respects by saying that everyone hates English... I'm not just saying that because I liked it (A LOT actually). I feel like most students say they don't like it because they're tired of doing the same things year after year: the same types of essay, grammar over and over again, reading "HUGE" novels, etc! A lot of kids just hate getting up in the morning and coming to school in the first place and for those kids, English is not going to be the only subject that they hate. This may not be the most insightful response, but basically: not everyone hates English class.
In response to your second blog: I did the SAME thing except it was with a student that's actually going to be in my class. She comes up, sticks out her hand, and says "Hi, I'm ___" and I reply with "I'm Connie" and then "OOPS I mean Ms. Bruce!" My cooperating teacher said I'm still in 'helper' mode, but the real 'teacher' in me will come out once I start.
