Teaching English

God has opened a door for Impact-Prague in the teaching English area. A certain principle at an elementary age school has been looking for ways to help the kids at her school do a better job at learning English. This is because even though many many people are seeking to learning English, there aren't very many good teachers. What they need is native speakers.

So this principle has started a program that takes kids on Tuesdays and Thursdays, and places them in a classroom where the teachers are native English speakers. This program is led by Elaine Mudrik, one of the Impact-Prague team members. In the classroom the kids are learning basic English skills, like finding nose/ears/eyes, colors, greetings, and shapes.

I was able to go to the class with Elaine this morning, and help with the kids. They were a lot of fun to work with, though like most kids that age several of them were a little rowdy. I hope to start helping Sunny, another English teacher, on Wednesdays as she teaches conversational skills to 7th and 8th graders. It will be quite different, but I hope to have a chance to share God while we are talking. At the very least I am seeking to be intimate with God while with these kids.

In His Time,
