Random funny event that happened:
My assistant dean asked me (a graphic design major with a semester and 4 weeks of experience of teaching) to give a lecture to the English department faculty (who all of them have degrees in education and some have masters and doctorates) on the trends and techniques of education.
Hahaha! I love the favor we've been given here. I also have to kind of laugh at the fact that we're "foreign experts" and therefore know more than they do on certain things. pssht. I appreciate the humility and eagerness to learn, but I'm not sure they really know who I am.
Technically, she said, "anything you want to talk about" but I'm not sure they were referring to what I want to talk about because she followed it up with "maybe new educational trends or teaching techniques that we could learn from you."
Hey Abram! Long time no talk - but glad to see you are doing awesome in China. I love getting your updates in the mail and seeing all of the pictures. Just wanted to let you know I am praying for you and thinking about you!
