English Classes

Our English classes are going great! Efra, Alyssa, Bre, and I are definitely VERY tired when we get done with our two hour long class…who would have thought that teaching would be so tiring!? I am very thankful that God has been strengthening each one of us because sometimes I wonder how we get through the day without falling asleep standing up! Haha


The kids (and adults) are very smart! We were surprised at the amount that each person knew. I think the biggest thing that our students are thankful for is the fact that we teach them how to correctly pronounce words. The teachers here often don’t teach pronunciation—most just teach “the Spanish way” to say the words. Some of the lessons we have taught include…numbers, colors, simple greetings, body parts, and stories from the bible. We were so surprised to see that many children in the class had already heard the story of Jesus feeding the 5,000 people. All of the children that we are working with come from poor families. We know this because of the school in which they attend. On Friday we will be having an end of the week English “party” for the kids and sharing the gospel with them. Please be praying that God would open the hearts of our students and that many would come to know our Savior Jesus Christ.
