Hello, hello!
I am glad to update that things are going very well here in Tanzania! I have been very busy as usual but I can see that the end of training is nearing its end, which is both a good and bad thing. I have started teaching and that has been really amazing. We had two days of microteaching where we practiced teaching in front of our peers and I got a lot of feedback from that. On Monday, I actually started teaching Tanzanian students, though, which was really exciting. During training, I teach form 1 (or freshman year high school). The students are really well-mannered and enjoy (as far as I can tell) having a English Speaking teacher because they need to learn English because all of their classes are in English. I am really happy to say that teaching has been a really wonderful part of training and I look forward to having students of my own.
Things at home are going really well too. There was a slight miscommunication problem this weekend that led to some stress, but this is all taken care of now so everything is good. A few days ago, I went into town (which is where I am now to use the internet) with my host brother and sister. We went to the net cafe to try and look at some pictures that we had taken from a party this weekend. Walking around town we were holding hands and it was a lot of fun. We bought biscuits and ate them on the dalla dalla ride home. It was a really fun day!
Well, I am going to go and write some emails! I hope to email again sometime next week! I am trying to write more handwritten letters too but things have been pretty busy. I hope you all are well and please continue to update me!
