Nothing special happening today. So, I thought I might show
you what I am actually doing here! I’ve never had the opportunity before to fill
out a customs card where I check the purpose of my visit is business!
I’ve developed an online
course for new Korean ESL teachers introducing them to and giving them basic
information about how to teach ESL to children. Before I came here I put together 11 lessons. That was the easy part – research and
putting things together into a neat little package is one of my strengths. The part I was not looking forward to,
and was in fact dreading, was the part I’m in now - filming these lectures so they can go online. Before I came here I was told to make
lectures that were 15-20 minutes long.
I did some practicing in Canada to ensure the information I was including was not going to go too much
over 20 minutes. I got here and it
turns out they want the lectures to last at least 30 minutes. SHIZA!! Fortunately, somehow I surprised myself. Somehow this girl of few words has been
able to ramble and babble for an extra 10-15 minutes! Unbelievable I know!!
Here are some shots from around the office.
