Well I had my first day as "Lindsey Teacher" today. It was rough- they are a hand full (possibly an understatement)!! But it was really nice to see how much they already know- I have a few students who are way beyond the level, you can tell their parents really worked with them prior to coming here- but then there are some who are clueless! We have a lot of free play time this week, making the kids comfortable with the class and whatnot. I did do my first lesson- we went over Hello! Hi! How are you? I'm good, thank you! And they all repeat after me, it is really cute!

But I feel like I get such a work out running around with the kids- and then we have 2 buildings that we have to constantly go up and down the stairs in, but that is good I suppose :)

I got poked today in my chest area from a kid- I knew it was a thing to get poked in your butt, but this was a different first day- let me tell you, the kids name he likes to be called by is "Andy Firetruck"... if that gives you any inkling of how he might behave- I guess learning disabilities in this country are ignored because that means something is wrong with your child, so they go without being diagnosed/treated. It's actually quite sad- and such a disruption to the class!!

Above are a few pictures of my box sized apartment- I have gone to a store a few times to buy a few things to spruce it up- I'm going back this evening to look for a fan! (the girl in the picture is my new friend Jackie from Eden Prairie! Small world!)

Hope things on the other side of the world are going well!

With love from Korea!
