In my ten years of teaching I have never come across a publication that was this effective in capturing the attention of the student and making them want to learn and understand more.

I think the stories you write are amazing.
Its funny because I hate reading but yet Im excited to see what you wrote.

I feel the need to use resources that are timely.
But it is difficult to find articles that contain a) content appropriate for intermediate students or b) written at an appropriate comprehension level.
News-O-Matic surprised me with both.
