I didn't before I came here....but for some reason, kids always stuck to me like velcro. I was terrified of how I was going to do this job (why I did, I'll never know), but it didn't take long after I first arrived.

I have a little mental list.....if I could snatch *just one* to take home with me for the rest of my life, it would be Sarah. Or Jenny. Or Kevin. Nooooo, Julie.

When I came back to Korea a second time, I actually didn't want to teach kids again, just because of how sad it made me to say goodbye to my first class. Now, with only a few months left in this contract, I already stop and think about how hard it will be to say goodbye. Especially because one mother came in to school the other day and told me her daughter said that I am going to be her English teacher until she is 16 years old.

Yeah. I love the 8-12 year old group too. They don't judge and they have a very simple agenda. HAVE FUN!!!!

My students are amazing. Before I came to Korea I didnt really like kids (I know what your thinking, wrong career choice dumb ass) but now I absolutly love kids. They are great and alot of fun. They always make me laugh!! I just lost a game of paper rock scissors with a student and had to rename them Undertaker and The Rock. It was hilarios. The kids are the best part of this whole experience!
