And we're off....

I'm reporting from Xiangzhou.

We are up and running this morning. After introductions and a speech by an Education Department official, I gave a short presentation on principles for effective English Communication Competency and Acquisition. (Yeah, they were a little bored too.)

Then Val perked us all up with a series of icebreaker exercises. It was nice to see the students move from lethargy to engagement.

We are already starting to have good conversations with people and hope that they will continue to go deeper. Thanks for thinking of us.

We hope to have some pictures to post soon. Right now we are having struggles getting pictures to upload.
