We are starting to get a handle on teaching now that it is the middle of the second week. We are improving in Mandarin and the kids are improving in English. They also seem to be having fun with the program.
After classes, the school took us out for lunch at a restaurant in Qiaoqi. We then went back to the school for our second week of ping pong lessons. We all enjoy the class and are getting better at ping pong. Our next class was Intensive Chinese. We have been learning a lot of characters, which will help us in high school. Tonight, we ordered our own dishes at dinner. Four people ordered Tie Ban Niu Rou (steel-cooked beef). The rest ordered wontons or soup dumplings. This week has been great so far and we hope the rest of the trip goes as smoothly.
