Language training

So on Monday I had my first day of language classes. I am starting at an intermediate high level, which I was happy with. Our classes are Monday through Friday 8 to 5...with an hour lunch break. Its pretty intense. In the morning we are in a classroom literally right outside my house and for the afternoons we are outside in our town or the city nearby. This morning the Spec. Ed group visited a Special Education School. Ohh the kids were so sweet! There was about 6 classrooms with about 10 kids in each room. And only one teacher per class!!! At home, sometimes there are more teachers than students! They are doing their best and with the resources that they had, I was pretty impressed. I will be going to a spec ed school like that somewhere in ecuador to help and support the teachers. It is very exciting. Not much else is new...things are going good. Im happy. I will post pictures maybe tomorrow!
