More of the usual.

Since the weather has been beautiful lately, I've taken to holding most of my classes outside. As I mentioned in an earlier post, this makes my students a little more comfortable speaking English, for which I am thankful - - usually.  Sometimes their newfound comfort means we have really good conversations about their favorite films, what they want to do when they "grow up," and what they would do if they won the lottery.  Sometimes their newfound comfort means they ask me what my favorite alcoholic beverage is, and I have to awkwardly try to steer the conversation back to something appropriate for an English class.  Nonetheless, I appreciate that with two weeks left of my contract, they're finally coming out of their shells.
