English in the afternoon

Each afternoon we teach an English class for anyone who wants to come so we never know who might show up and what level of English skills they might have.  The rumor before we started this year was that a lot of people were planning to come...some that are studying English in the university.  Well...we've had from 10 to 15 each day...a few university students but mostly 8-14 year-olds with little or no English study.  Katherine offered to work with any university students but that sort of fizzled so we seem to have settled into a mostly beginner class of kids and few to no adults most days.  About half of the class are returning from last year.

It's a little frustrating because the group seems to vary from day to day so it's difficult to maintain any continuity but they are fun to work with and they seem to be learning a little.  Most days we enter the class feeling tired and leave feeling energized by the group.
