…is not a ‘thing’ at all, but my students! They are my reason for smiling everyday, for staying young, goofy and silly. Maybe my students will just vaguely remember me as another foreign teacher that dropped in K-town for a while. However, my students are my kids. I have the privilege of being their mentor, impression of America, a resource. I’m their teacher. 🙂 To me, they will be remembered as my lil korean kids, my first students at a real FT job; they are the gems that inadvertently changed my mindset towards kids. Since Korea, I love those little rascals! =D
FYI: haven’t been able to upload flix onto my webshot account for a month–and those flix are from 3 different cameras so I don’t think it’s a problem w the camera but instead my computer. I’ll try to upload flix during my lunch break from the work computer. I really want to share them with you! My kids are beautiful, cute, and silly geese!

Getting messy in cooking class with nobel (so my school loves to take flix of cooking classes. I actually only teach cooking class two classes out of my 50 (!!!!!) classes taught per week.
My student, Charlie, was the winner for the best journal written in June. I am the foreign teacher and Joseph (R) is the Korean teacher. So each level in Elementary School has two classes per day–one from me and one from the Korean teacher.

Cindy-the youngest student-from Nobel class and I getting down n dirty in the cooking class. Nope, that’s not play-dough, that’s her cookie she smashed down.
July. Newton class is very intrigued by the cooking measuring scale.
Bess is always super ready. It’s so cute b/c she almost always shoots up her hand and yells out the (correct) answer. She’s a doll! I just love my Newton class. They’re amazing!
This flix really is a winner because I love to see my students so happy to be in class with me and making learning FUN!
