Ok, so imagine this.........
You only teach 12 hours a week, only 3 or 4 hours each day, you never have to prepare anything, the teacher tells you exactly what to do for each class, you never have to do lesson plans or grade papers, you have 10 minute breaks between each class, everyone pays attention in class and asks you questions, you work in a brand new school.....
This is my life! And I LOVE it! The other teachers always ask me questions on how the best way to say something or pronunciation - it's quite fun! Sometimes I've never really thought about things in English so when they ask me, it's interesting to think about it.
So check it out.....
I have the whole next week off because of exams (oh man, tests I mean. My English is starting to sound more like a British English since that's the type of books I teach with). I also have a whole week off for Semana Santa (Easter - a big thing here in Spain) and then the whole week off before that because of exams. Sweet! I'll have been paid for almost 2 months without working here - now that's what I'm talking about!
Also, I just found out that the school wants me to give a 50 minute speech on some aspect of the U.S.A in March and they are going to pay me 100 euros. That's crazy! I told them, "demasiado!" but they told me not to say that (too much), but just say, "that's perfect." So that's what I did! I feel famous or something! Haha!
Oh, and we're going to do a play at the end of the year....Alice in Wonderland. How fun!
