A while back a professor wrote to this group asking how he could make a seemingly boring grammar book, the name I will not repeat, more interesting for his uninterested students.  Someone answered back something along the line that it is hard to interest the uninterested.  It is haunting me that I never answered my opinion on the issue.

One of the most important things taught during a teaching credential program is that it is the teacher/professor's responsibility to make the material interesting.  I would recommend taking an interactive approaches class.  Learn different strategies and methods to get the students up, working together, and getting to know each other.  Do you know how many adults watch and enjoy games?  They play on baseball teams, watch Wheel of Fortune, Jeopardy, they sing in the church choir, etc.  Make it fun!  Their interest will follow.
