Hi,
I was wondering what nicknames you use for your students if you don �t want to address them by their first name for some reason.

We use real English names. Of course they sound different from ours that �s why they like them. All my ss choose the names themselves. Also it �s smth like a signal to switch from native language over to English. By the way, I also have another English name
