This month's class was interesting and fun. Last month was 4 students this month was 10. I haven't had such a big class in a long time. The students were eager to learn and showed a lot of growth over the month. What the nice thing is that they learned to lean on each other and helped each other through the final class. This class seemed a little difficult at first, so much diversity, but at the end, there was no diversity, everyone had one goal, to be successful as a teacher. They all had their own way of doing things, but each had a little of my style. It felt good to know that I could influence them and they will always carry a little piece of me with them when they go to Saudi Arabia, Mexico, Taiwan, France, Czech Republic, and maybe Ghana. 3 students didn't know exactly what they would teach even on Wednesday. They emailed me and asked for my advice. I pointed them in a direction and they took it from there. They don't know how realistic that is until they go overseas and find out that they have to come up with 4-6 classes every day, 5 days a week. It isn't always easy, and I think my students have found resources on line and within themselves to give their students great classes and keep themselves, and their students entertained! Good luck Ashley, Deborah, Usman, Daniel, Maddy, James, Abe, Long, Art, and Kate!
