The Italian students are so precious! They have genuine spirit unlike American
students. They are very outspoken and
use many had gestures for their point to be made. Whenever my teacher friends and I walk into a
room, the students are very excited. All
the girls loved my jewelry and my clothes.
My friend Kelsey and I observed a music class today. The students were so excited that we were
going to watch their class. They even
wanted me to play the drums with the professor and his guitar. I wasn’t very good, but the students loved it
anyways. I cannot express how precious
they are. I wish I could take a picture
of them, but I am not allowed to.
Today we did play auditions.
My friend Becca and I taught the chorus 1 dance. The kids did so awesome! They learned the words and the dance in just
doing it a couple of times. Then all the
Aggie teachers watched while they did it all by themselves!!! Then when we had a little free time, we
taught them the Bernie!!! It was so much fun! The kids loved doing the Bernie!
At our hotel when we were waiting for dinner, we were
practicing our dances for the play and the people who own the hotel put on
music! They put on rave music and they
started dancing! It was hilarious! We had a rave in the hotel lobby with the
people who own the place! What a great
experience! They only spoke Italian but
we understood each other and had fun!
I am so ready to become a teacher. This experience reassures me that teaching is
my passion. It also shows me that I
should not be an ESL (English as a second language) teacher! It is very hard to communicate without
knowing the same language. I praise ESL
teachers for their gift of teaching ESL students! Maybe I will learn Italian and come to live
in Italy to teach English! I love this
experience and I would not change it for the world! I miss everyone so much! I wish all of you were here with me. I finally put all my Rome pictures on
facebook, so be sure to look at them because Rome is AWESOME! Florence, La Pievuccia, and Castiglion
Fiorentino pictures are to come!
Ciao!
