Working at the school can be at times a challenge. The younger kids that I work with do not know much English. When you are trying to teach them and they can not understand you it gets a little frustrating. I have had two students from first grade for the last two months. They have been working hard in class, but they do not do anything at home. It doesn’t help that their parents can not help them because they too, do not know any English. This week on the other hand was a great success. Eloise finally understood me I was reading Curious George and he laughed at a funny part. All the kids looked at him, they did not understand, he looked shy, and I said, “No, it is funny you can laugh.” He understood what was going on in the story. When I first got here they could not read. Now, both of my students can now read 100 words, I made them a little certificate.
Susanna passed all her timed multiplication test We have been studying so hard for them since January. I thought that she would never get it, but she has. Her English has also improved so much. She has a million questions now that she can talk. It is so cool to see success
