Hey all! I started at the tech school, I am giving an intensive English class that lasts for 2 weeks. It runs from 8am-2pm everyday Monday through Saturday. It seems like a lot but I got really lucky and have a great group of students. They are really advanced and most of them speak very well. I am able to do a lot of conversation activities and less bookwork with them. There are seven students from the age of 18-30 and they all know each other already so it is a very comfortable class. I am really really enjoying teaching it and I hope the courses that begin in August are similar! The tech college gives me more freedom in my classes than Culturlingua did so I can incorporate other activities into my class, we have been working on pronunciation activities, listening to song lyrics in English, debates and sometimes just letting them talk to each other in English and correcting mistakes. It ends on Saturday and I'm a little sad, I wish I had this group for an entire semester, they are really eager to learn.
I bought a ticket home since I don't have to teach at all in August. I am coming home from July 26th-August 23rd. I am very excited to come home and see everyone! I'll miss Mexico a little bit while I'm gone, but all in all it should be a fun trip home. Sorry this post is so short, but I'll be seeing most of you next week! :)
