Tomorrow morning my first class begins at 8:00 and goes until 9:50. It includes a short, 10-minute break in the middle there, but it'll still be the longest continuous teaching experience I've ever had with just one group of people.
The second class is immediately afterwards and it's just as long.
I've got a plan for how I'm going to run the class, what I'm going to say and what I'm going to have the students do, but still I feel apprehensive. (Even after being assured by ten people that I shouldn't worry).
In other news, the PIN number for the computer in my apartment still hasn't been able to get me connected, so I can't post any pictures.
Oh, and something cool happened on Monday that I forgot to mention: after working with Ben I went to a small village next to the Medical College, they were having a celebration that I got some pictures of. I don't know what it was about, but it was a nice little escape from the campus.
And the last thing I have to report is that last night I went to practice some martial arts in the PE college.
I invited my two colleagues from the US, only Will showed. The instructor wasn't around to coach us, but some of the students helped us train. I'm thinking now that maybe I should have done some more bag work without shoes back in the States - so many wheel kicks, the tops of my feet took some wicked punishment.
