Day 3 Reflections

Halfway through the week, we are deep into the orientation process, getting to know the school better. In the morning, we had a very informative/interactive presentation from the fine arts department and in the afternoon we were had a presentation about the counseling services of the school. Having always taught abroad, it's good to have access to counselors now that I'm back in the States because they are a good resource as to what's really going on with your student emotionally. As a teacher, I'm sure glad that I don't have to look after the student's emotional well being alone. Although today was more information packed compared to earlier this week, we still had opportunities to interact with each other, especially in the team building activity we did in the fine arts presentation. All in all, it's been another very productive day.
