I am so happy because the weather is BEAUTIFUL!!! I went out of the house without wearing socks for the 1st time since October. The sunshine is great and the flowers are blooming. The only down side is my allergies are in an uproar. What can you do?

I am happy to tell you that I have been asked to be on the leadership team next year. This means I will be responsible for helping new teachers adjust to living overseas and will serve as a go-between to their schools and ESI. It does give me a larger work load but I am excited about this opportunity to serve the new teachers. I will also go to California for the 1st three weeks of training to help train the newbies. This means three weeks away from friends and family but I feel it is worth it.

My seniors are gearing up for their graduation exams which are in 5 weeks. I will let you know their progress. I have one student in particular that I am worried about. I have been trying to give him some extra conversation practice because they have to speak for 10-15 minutes on a topic in English. I can't get him to understand when to meet me and I refuse to tell him in Czech. He has taken English for at least 6 years, maybe longer. So he should be able to understand Tuesday at 3:40. Let's hope Lukas does well but I am not very optimistic.
I hope you have a good week. I am going to enjoy the weather.
ciao!
