English Speech contest

Last Friday was the English Speech contest at my school. Here are some videos of the kids that spoke. My favorite was the last one called "I never want to be a mother".

Enjoy

New camera, new post

Well, it's been a while since I've posted, but I figure it's about time I put a new post up here. I just bought a new camera, my old one got lost somewhere and I don't know where it is. This new one is really cool and allows a lot of customization with the pictures on it and it takes some really crisp pictures.

My school is getting ready for an English speaking contest tomorrow so tomorrow I get to sit down and judge about 24 students and listen to them speak in broken English. I think I'll survive, but I'm not holding out for any real good performances. Some of the students did their presentations in class, and I graded them... but some of the bad performers got chosen by the Korean teachers even though there were better students because, according to my Co-teacher, "Their parents say that their English is very good. They should be in the speaking contest." Gotta love the objectiveness that these teachers bring to the school at times. (Yeah, I get jaded by Korean culture at times).

Anyways, here are some pictures that I took with the new camera.

Here's my English classroom
