New School Year

The end of August brought about the start of a new school year, and with the new school year there are lots of new changes.

Since Nikelle is getting married this year, she has resigned her position at the school, so change #1: A new Native English Teacher. Paul is the new teacher. He is from England and has been living in Hong Kong for 2 years prior to starting at CWGC. Although he's not like Nikelle in personality or teaching style, he and I work really well together. We have quite a good time and I've done somethings socially with him and his wife, Angela. Paul does not have a religion and his wife is Buddhist. Pray that I can be a good witness to them.

Change #2: I am teaching quite a few more classes this year. So this year, I teach 860 students. Basically I see them once every 14 school days. The thing that makes me so frustrated is that I don't know my students names. Not seeing them very frequently and having so many makes it difficult.

Change #3: Along with my classes, I am also in charge of a few extra activites. I am helping to run the English Ambassador Program, the English Society and also Student Lunch time Performances.

Please pray for the remaining school year that I will be focused and organized and that I can make a difference in these Students lives and my co-workers lives for Christ.
