• CLASS PICTURE TIME

  
  

  Some of the 3rd – 4th graders here at Geon Children’s Home that I teach Tuesday and Saturday afternoons…

  
  

  

  
  

  Some of the 5th graders here that I also teach Tuesdays and Saturdays… we took three pictures, but these kids just can’t stay still or keep focused on the camera, so this is the best one

  
  

  

  
  

  I teach four high schoolers Tuesday and Thursday nights, this is my lone boy Jong Hyun and me (two more guys will be joining our class in a couple weeks)

  
  

  

  
  

  Me and my three high school girls Kot Nim, Eun Jin, and Yun Hwa…

  
  

  

  
  

  Next is my toughest class… a mix of kids from the home here and community kids, mainly 1st graders with a couple 2nd graders and one 3rd grade boy… thankfully a friend from my church, Hannah, also helps me out.  We teach this class Monday afternoons; its a 75 minute class… crazy long for kids with one minute attention spans, but we somehow manage.

  
  

  

  
  

  I like this picture of the class better… I accidently took a picture while trying to set up… you can see Hannah trying to get them to smile but they each seem to be in their own little world…

  
  

  

  
  

  Here is my other community class of 1st and 2nd graders.  I teach them by myself on Thursday afternoons, another 75 minute class.  I didn’t get a good class picture, but this is a pic of them busy coloring for a class activity. 

  
  

  

  
  

  I also teach some of the dorm mothers and a dorm father here on Monday nights, but I don’t have a class pic of us yet.  Along with my teaching schedule I am currently attending Korean class Mon, Tues, Thurs, and Fri from 10am – 1pm at an academy an hour from the orphanage.  My Korean skill isn’t much yet, but its growing.  God bless!
