So here are some pictures from English Camp. As I predicted, there was very little English going on at the resort. It was actually a lot of fun (until the last day when it took about 7 hours to make a 3 hour bus drive back to Bangkok). I got to see my students as actual people, just regular teenagers who want to hang out and drink and have fun. And let's face it, I am not much older than a lot of these kids. I'd say the average age of my students is 17-18, so I have more in common with them than is noticeable when we are in the classroom.
Most of the pictures are from the last night of Camp, "Fancy Night" as the kids coined it. They all dressed up nice, and we had a talent show for the kids to get up on stage, and mostly just dance to bad pop music. But they had a great time. Other than that we went a waterfall, had some activities (loosely based around the English language) and just relaxed for three days without having to go to class. It was a fun time, though, I am happy I don't have to do it again.
Even though most of them are just lazy lazy students, a lot of them are good kids.
This is one of my students. One of my boy students.
Students and teacher.
Yes. They misspelled the word "School" for the banner at English Camp. I love my school.
The girl on the right has a total crush on me. It's sort of cute. Sort of.
Joel and Jill!
More students.
My coworker Jill and I played a song for the kids at English Camp. Video Available upon request.
Yup. Some of them dressed as cowgirls.
This is Orapin, one of my favorite students. She jammed tambourine during our song.
Supanida. Don't tell anyone, but she is my favorite student. You wouldn't believe it if I told you, but she is 21. She is one year younger than me.
This is a coworker, Cat. She looks like Sun Kwon if you ask my opinion.
