Three and a half weeks in Korea

I'm two days now into my fourth week of teaching and having a blast. Teaching in a classroom environment is so different from what I'm used to. There are so many dynamics in a classroom and I'm still learning classroom management and the students are still learning how far they can go with me. Of course, I'm still learning how far I'm willing to let them go before dishing out punishment.


I still love all the kids, though. I especially enjoy being able to talk with many of them in between class times. I've already gotten several text messages from a few students. It's so fun being a teacher and someone that the kids respect but you can still build a relationship with them.


Of course, being back in Korea means I get to go back to my church and church family. I look forward to every Sunday and the morning worship, lunch time together, and coming back to Osan with a group of friends to eat, do something fun, or just hang out at my place.

A lot of things have happened and I've done a lot of stuff over the past few weeks but I'll start from here on out with some more regular posting, time permitting.

Kevin, It is so good to hear from you! I just mentioned you in our prayer group this week telling them about you and what you are doing. It is impossible for you to be soooo grown up! Talk to you soon. Love, Aunt DeeDee
