Personal Prayer During the Amida

How do you add your own private prayers to the standard text of the amida (the silent prayer; the Shemona Esrei)?

Can you add your prayer in English?

Should you pronounce the words or only think them?

Can you pray for a good future or only for a good present?

A Hebrew source sheet is available through the links in both WORD format and pdf. In class, we will translate and explain these sources.
