First classes and new work

20th – first class – went fairly well I think. Five students turned up, with a sixth at the end of class. I’ve been given another subject, Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays, teaching English for Accounting and Finance to the same students. Had a fairly good debrief with Monica and Hene in the evening, including the possibility of purchasing Monica’s moto when she leaves.

21st – first English class today! Class went smoothly, except that the listening exercise was difficult, mostly due to the low quality tape (and background noise on the tape – I can appreciate their attempts to make it ‘real life’, but it makes it so much more difficult to hear…)

I had dinner and drinks with Monica and Jason (works in Rovieng), and realised how little cash I have left after paying for my moto and the visa extension…. I’m going to see how far the last $30 can go…. I wonder if I can make it to the end of the month – payday!
