Our Spanish teachers

Most of our days have been spent in our Spanish classes. We start at 9:00 every morning. After an hour and a half of lessons, we have a break. The kids and I then go hunt down a nice place to swap Sebastián stories. Sebastián is Sean, Emily Jane and Claire's teacher. He has the patience of Job and keeps them laughing the whole time. They have learned an amazing amount of Spanish. Sean has learned so much that he has designated himself orderer-in-chief. Whenever we need a newspaper or a coke or a Super Ocho (like a huge Kit Kat), Sean is there! He says, "Lo siento porque mi español es terrible pero necesito una coca cola". They either love him for his attempt at Spanish or his striking resemblance to Justin Bieber. We're not sure! Whenever we walk off, there is always someone singing, "Baby, baby, baby"!



Our teacher has been Natalia. We have absolutely loved her. She is the best language teacher while keeping us absolutely laughing to the point we are crying every day while laughing. Eric joins us when his schedule permits and it has been a blast. Being in a class with Elaine has been a lovely opportunity and I treasure the time we have spent.

  2. Voy a extrañar mucho a mis estudiantes, este mes ha sido muy divertido, he jugado casi más que cuando era niño. Realmente ha sido un desafió estar con niños de tan diferentes edades, pero la verdad es que son muy simpáticos y locos como su profesor ha ha.

    Tienen una familia muy hermosa y alegre. Sigan hablando español.

    Espero verlos nuevamente.

    Un abrazo.

    Su profesor de español, Sebastián.

    I’m gonna miss my American students so much, this month has been great, I have played even more than when I was a child ha ha. Actually, teaching children with different ages has been a challenge to me; however Sean, Emily Jane and Claire are very nice and as crazy as their Spanish teacher, ha ha.
    You have a beautiful, happy and lovely family; keep on speaking and studying Spanish!

    Hope to see you all of you again!

    Kisses and hugs,

    Your Spanish teacher, Sebastián.
