Four years ago I was hired by Medford School District to teach phonics in a Bi-lingual Kindergarten, which resurrected Spanish Vocabulary I had from my growing up in So. California schools. With that, the remembrance of how much I enjoy the Spanish Language. It has been a dream of mine to become confident and conversational, and so by my husband's generosity and the encouragement of many, I'm flying this Saturday to Puebla, Mexico, for a 3 week Spanish Immersion course.
I'll be staying with a family, attending small classes in the mornings (max 8 students) and about town in the afternoons, one on one with a professor. I'm excited about Language School, terrified about traveling by myself and being away from home longer than ever before.
I'll try my best to keep this blog updated. I covet your prayers and support while I'm gone.
And all I can say is - I'm proud of you, Mama!!!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful blog. Looking forward to keeping up with your journeys.

ReplyDeleteHola, Myrna. Hace catorce anos que fui a la misma ciudad para estudiar. Una amiga mia era la directora de otra escuela alli. Espero que te disfrutes mucho tu viaje y que estudies bien! Lo siento, pero no puedo encontrar los acentos!! Dios te bendiga.

Here's an important one to know:
ReplyDelete"Donde esta el bano?" (I don't have the right keyboard to type it right nor the patience to find all of the correct character mappings, but I think you get it).
Good luck. Sounds like a great opportunity!
