Rain, Rain, and more Rain

It's been a very stormy week. And when it rains here it pours! The rain drops hit the tin roof of our house so hard, you can barely hear yourself think. The good thing is, it only lasts for about 10-15 mins. Because of the heat, the roads have mist/steam that rises after a rain. It's so beautiful, but I can't seem to catch it on my camera. Despite the rain we continue to travel to the school everyday and teach our lessons. I love my class so much! I am now tutoring one-on-one with one of my students, Richard. He reminds me so much of myself. I'm pretty sure he has some kind of learning disability. I remember being in school and getting so overwhelmed I'd stop trying. That's where he is at right now. But when I'm with him one-on-one he really tries and wants to learn. I just hope I can get him ready for his exams at the end of term. Meghan also comes with me to tutor one of her 1st grade students, who doesn't know her own name. Its pretty overwhelming looking at all the students that need extra help. I have one girl in my class who seems to have the vocabulary and mind of a 5 yr old. She seems very unaware of her surroundings and has taken to following me all over campus. Once I finish teaching my math lesson I go over to Meghan's class to help her. As soon as I arrive in her room I turn around and there is Amposuah. Sometimes she is sitting at a desk other times she is waiting in the doorway. I'm going to try and tutor her on the days I'm not with Richard. I'll let you know how it all goes. I am very proud of the hard work my kids put into everything they do. They really are good kids and deserve the best. Meghan has found out how to upload pics so I might be able to post some of them soon. I 'm so excited to be here and have this wonderful opportunity. I'm sorry this is so short I don't have a lot of time today. I will post more later. I love you all and wish you all the best!
