Meet the Teacher, Part 2

We now have the video for another teacher, Karen.  She is the academic director of our school.  Take a look a the video.  Also, when she says she sometimes speaks a few other languages; take my word for it that she is being quite modest.

Perspective changes things...

After what feels like 4 months of being out of classes- we finally have resumed school to begin my second trimester of Spanish.  It is amazing what perspective does for you.  I have always done well in school, even if I didn’t enjoy it.  Once I got older I was always very ready for school to start back up to resume the social aspect of school, and I’d put up with the classes in the process.  My schooling now is totally different.  Most of my friends live very close to us, so I was able to have the social aspect the entire time we were on break, so I was not looking forward to school resuming for that reason.  Now, I have been anxious for school to start back up for the classes.  Having the knowledge that this part of my education will directly and strongly impact my future life as I settle into the community in Mexico as well as my effectiveness for God changed my whole outlook.  I no longer desired school for the friends I’d see, but for the information I would learn.  So, this short post is for one reason,  to say:

I’M SO GLAD TO BE BACK IN CLASS!
