My Studies & Classroom

There are many post-it notes around the apartment with my new vocabulary on them! Here's a table setting that is on the kitchen counter.

plate = el plato
glass = el vaso
fork = el tenedor
knife = el cuchillo
spoon = la cuchara
cup = la teza



Here are some pictures of the classroom where I spend 4 hours every day from 8:30 AM to 12:30 PM. It's a very comfortable room - light and airy. Today, because of the heat, Belkis turned on the air conditioner.

My homework last night was to learn the alphabet. So today I wrote the spelling of words on the board as Belkis read them to me. At least you write from left to right, not like Hebrew - the last language I learned!
Well, that's all for now. I need to get to my homework!

Hi Beth! what a great journal of your trip so far! This is good enough for a presentation! It is awesome that you will be getting 1 on 1- perfectly suited to your needs!! I am excited that you are there and it sounds like you are learning a lot. I cannot wait to keep up with your adventure and talk when you get back. I am sending many blessings and prayers to you and those with whom and among whom you are learning.
Peace-
Kesha
