Teachaaa Teachaaa you booty full! Thai kids, like most, cute but insane. They will never disrespect you but they constantly chatter in your class and you have to come up with creative ways to bring them back. Oh yeah, it can also be especially tricky to maintain control when you don't speak their language and there are 60 of them per classroom. Another point, these kids don't know a lick of English. Most just look at me with blank stairs when i ask them how old they are or where they are from... and they have supposedly been studying English since kindergarden. Lame and frustrating. Overall though my first week of classes went pretty well. I like the kiddies a lot! Again, the lack of English knowledge is hard to deal with... and no wonder the kids can't speak English because the Thai teachers who teach English can't speak it either.
Still on curfew through this whole weekend. Going to play with Sarah Ann Barr and get some sun in! That's pretty much it. Another week of classes, off on Friday for some Buddhist holiday, then Koh Samed!!
