Abstract
The emotional dimension of teaching and learning from the perspective of the
teacher and learner in adult education is considered in this paper by means of an
autoethnographic story written as an approach to reflective practice. The genre of
autoethnography allows for the personal and the autobiographical as a legitimate
site for research into self and culture, in this case the culture of adult education.
The space this approach opens up between writer and reader is considered to be a
potential site of meaning making and reader responses are considered to this end.
