Wow, it's the end of the 2nd week already! I had planned to blog everyday but guess it just got busier & busier!
Last Friday, I did manage to ask the guy from China abt his "do u believe in God?" question - he said he just wanted to find out how many ppl in class believed in God. So I asked him whether HE believed in God. And he said, "Now I do". I presume he just became a Christian? Anyway he's been attending a Chinese church here in Perth. Praise God! :)
Last weekend - I basically had to do a 1000 word assignment, but really struggled to keep my energy level up 'cos I was just so exhausted from a week's of classes & teaching! I think this weekend is pretty much going to be the same... though I do have a few more assignments + a lesson to plan for Monday!
It's been really a great experience this past week too - got to know my classmates (teacher trainees) a little bit more too - espy some of their views on religion.. now u might think how that comes up in our conversations huh? Easy - I just tell them what my usual occupation is... haha..
Been building up a good friendship with one of the ladies here - pray that we'd get to know each other better & continue our friendship even beyond the course!

Now I'm teaching the Elementary level students - definitely much more challenging as the students don't have a lot of vocabulary so can't communicate as much. It can be quite draining - giving so much but getting little response. But really enjoyed my first lesson with them today - just some vocabulary & pronunciation. Hopefully they learnt something!
