TEFL Certification

Hello again,
I found out I will be taking a class in New Ulm on Teaching English as a Foreign Language. That means I will be living there for three weeks in June. June 11-29. I'm really excited to take this class and get prepared for what to expect as a teacher. I never thought I would want to teach, and here I am going to China...

Sara and I talked to a Chinese man at church on Sunday. He told us this joke: People in Guangdong will eat anything with four legs except a table, and also anything that flies in the sky except airplanes. So his advice is to not eat the tables! Thanks! :)

Thanks for all of the encouraging messages you have sent me!

I'm officially going to China!

So I found out on Thursday that my friend Sara and I are going to China to teach English at the Number One High School (Yes, that's what it's called!). We will be in Guangdong Province, possibly in Guangzhou. We leave on August 24, 2007, and can come home as early as July 1, 2008.
