The teacher has been out for two weeks so Dominique (another volunteer) and I have been asked to take her place until she returns. It has been an interesting change in pace. I am seeing a side of the children I have never seen before. Some of them are so shy in the class room and don’t want to participate, thankfully we have been able to open several of them up and they now enjoy being involved. There are still the few that feel like they just don’t get it and need more one on one teaching. We have been teaching them about the solar system, math, writing skills, geography, as well as many other subjects. It’s amazing what these children don’t know! They have learned a lot since we have been teaching and it’s been a learning experience for us as well. I have decided that teaching is a crash course in learning patients.
