With sixteen students and twelve nationalities ranging from French to Turkish, from Mexican to Lebanese, from Belgian to American, from Spanish to Senegalese, from Togolese to Brazilian, and from Korean to Burundian, why wouldn't I love teaching first graders? Well, there's always the bouquet of languages that I love, too.
I'll name a few:
French English Arabic Spanish
Fula Kirundi Korean Turkish
Did I mention that we also
Hear Portuguese and Togolese...
Do you still wonder
Why I love teaching these?
