Hey Everyone,
All is in well in Taiwan. Yesterday was our "Hop Gia Dinh" (every Friday at 7pm) and it has been amended that I teach English everyday for 1 hour (excluding weekends). I think frequency is BEST when teaching any language. Daily exposures and practices will help them greatly in grasping the skills needed to successfully communicate in English!
We are currently preparing for a very important religious observation for this Sunday. Eight of the women here have practiced day and night for the past 2 weeks on a dance with the song "Dem Hoi Trang Ram". It's really nice!
More later ...
