Language & Learning

The teaching is easy and going well here. We absorbed 11 instructors from Zimbabwe so my teaching load is minimal. I’m pitching in in other ways, though. On Thursday as we were leaving school, one of the tutors (they use the British term) told me that I and two Rwandan tutors had to accompany the students to a 5-school debate competition on Saturday (yesterday). The debate was in English. On short notice, these smart and hard-working kids pulled it together and won the competition. So proud of them!
