TODD School Farewell

Over the past several weeks, I have started to turn over my English conversation classes to other teachers. I've enjoyed having another small window into the culture and building relationships with children has been great, but I've also found the lessons very tiring and stressful - so I'm kind of relieved to be finished with that for a time.

The children were a joy to be around, but I felt so limited as a "teacher" since our communication was so basic. It was a great learning experience for me, nonetheless, and hopefully they gained a bit from me as well.

I will hopefully continue to work with my two students at the Nat'l Defense Academy, even after the baby is born. I really enjoy the one on one lessons much more and the librarian and professor that I work with are interesting and fun!
