Teaching

Forgot to upload this, but once i get my computer i should be able to make a littlemore steady of account of the time spent at Asian University.

The kids are really fun, though somewhat spoiled (since this camp is more than 8x's what a "typical" thai makes in a month) but they are still good kids...

They are just nervous about speaking, and shy, but once you get them having fun they're like any other. Teaching them is fun, since half the time it is me running around like a fool trying to get them to understand what I am asking them to do, or get them interested in learning the language to be learned. We get to do lots of projects and art stuff to help, and break up long days teaching. We have AC rooms and access to materials, and they provide a book for a baseline. It's fun.

they have weekly BBQ dance nights, in which we theme up and dance outside (sweating horribly,as it's probably still in the 80's at night) and that's fun.

Started to get into the groove of things,so not much to report... just trying to have fun and teach at the same time, and go out to the islands or on fun dance nights when we are allowed off campus to have fun.

all is well, good talking with everyone on Easter! The cruise is only a couple monthsaway!
