The students' English ability ranges from those who are barely speak English to those teaching HS who are very proficient. So the needs are great on both ends. We have them in graded classes in the moring but the afternoon is supposed to be a group and one end cannot sing Row Row Your Boat while the other end wants to know how to prepare students for college entrance exams. Maybe Take me Out to the Ball Game will fly today.
Just a couple of extra thigs for the English techers this week - tonight a class for hotel worker to learn English before october when there is a big convention here. Tomorrow night an English Corner where we sit in the public town square and anyone can talk to us about anything. Saturday was billed as sightseeing - further questions revealed the sight will be the local high school and the seeing will be by the students as we give a 1 hour lecture on "deep culture." I better bone up on Thoreau before then - he's pretty deep.

It might have been nice to have had a warning before hand about the lecture Saturday! Like before you left the states. I'm sure you'll do great. Is shopping for shoes and eating ice cream "deep culture"? If so, I think you've got it covered.
YOu know all Chineses shoes are size 6!!
