First Day
July 7th, 2007
Today was my first full real day tutoring at work. The work is fairly easy and straightforward and each child works as their own pace. Right now I’m tutoring in English in the morning and math in the evening. I teach about 5 hours a day, with some breaks throughout. For free housing and good pay, I couldn’t ask for more.
Outside of work, I might start tutoring a local man in exchange for Arabic lessons in the evening. While this could turn out to be excellent, he isn’t a teacher by profession and I don’t do well in individual classes… We’ll see.
I’ll leave you with the view from my apartment. Yes, that is the Persian Gulf about a kilometer away!
Hi! Lucky you are!!!
Do you still want to go back to Russia?
It’s cloudy and only about 20C in Vladimir…
Hi Bob
Or should I say Bean or Door? ; ) Sounds like things are going OK. I will stop at the PO today and pick up their priority mailing box - it is a flat rate so we can get two packages out to you soon.
Love you!
Mom
Weird! I was planning to apply to work not just in Kuwait but at your very school! Of course, that wouldn’t be until 2008, but who knows
