Sleepy in Seville

So been in classes for about a week now, and it feels like it's been a month. I guess that's good because it means that i have learned a lot. I realized that all of my spanish classes have been crap, and i've learned much better ways of teaching a language and i feel like going and telling all my spanish teachers what they should be doing more of. We have been in class every day on the average from 9:30am to 5:30 or 6pm, but then we have lesson planning to do which means we stay at the school until 8 or 9 at night and then go home and work for another couple of hours. then arrive at the school early the next morning for last minute touch ups before we teach at around 8:45am. so basically we have no lives except for teaching. point is... i would tell you about what sevilla is like but i don´t have a clue. there are lots of orange trees. That´s about all i know.

I'm eager to hear more about your lessons -- Maybe you can teach me a couple of things, eh? Enjoy the oranges--should help you feel at home.

i will definately teach you a couple of things, although i don't think you could apply them in YOUR classrooms... but if you ever wanted to help tutor a foreign student it could come in handy... maybe... hahahaha we deal with a much more beginner level student than what you would normally be dealing with i think
