I just got home from teaching a class and we came downstairs to have some dinner before we head out to San Pedro for the evening. Ashley only taught this morning so she had a relaxing evening off. We are going to meet some friends tonight which should be fun. Geoff and Colleen took the program through Oxford Seminars with us and have been here teaching since November. Its Colleen's birthday so we're meeting them to go celebrate! We haven't done much since we've been here. Usually we have dinner around 7 or 8, depending on our class times, then are holed up in our hotel room, watching TV and falling asleep. So it might be nice to actually go out and experience some culture and night life with two familiar faces.
But when we came down for dinner, we brought down our laptops to check our email and we just both received an amazing email from our boss, Michael. It touched our hearts and pleased us to no end so we wanted to share with you guys. Here it is!
Hi Ladies,
I just want to let you both know I'm very proud of both of you. You are both doing a fantastic job and I've heard from all the companies you are teaching at and they say you are doing an excellent job!
Please keep up the "excellent experience of teaching English as a second language" and do us all proud for the next six months or year I hope!
Thank you both again for doing such a great job and having fun and understanding the time involved in doing this type of business.
I hope you both "make" it a fantastic weekend!
Michael
So needless to say we feel very accomplished and way less nervous now. Always good to know that your students don't hate you!!
Cheers for now!!
Sending lots of sunshine home!
Love Brenner and Ashley!!
PS - Its almost moving weekend!! :)
