I pranced into class.......
It was a hot and muggy morning so my blown out hair was a frizz ball by the time we picked up our class lists and course outlines to hand out. I found my classroom and asked the two girls if they were in the right class and section number. They shook their heads yes. No more then 30 seconds later they said..."Teacher this is not that class." " Uh....are you sure!?!??!?!" "yes...its Tuesday!"
Looking down at my schedule, sure enough I was at my Monday morning class. I booked it down the hall, down the stairs, across the street, down the block, up to the 7th floor. I would also like to mention it was pouring down rain. So when I walked into the room my heels were full of water and I looked like a drowned rat.
I had three classes today, and they all went great! They were my lowest level classes, English Conversation level 1. The time the 3rd class rolled around I had the routine down! I would have to say one of the biggest challenges this afternoon was pronouncing their names!! All the students have shorter nick names off their family names which I am very grateful for... however, some of the names are hard to get the right sound out. For example here are some nick names... Audi, Pooh, Cheer, Mark, Best, Oui, Kade, Jet, It, Golf...
I will keep you posted on some more of the fun nicknames after I go through my 5 classes tomorrow!
