My English Zone!

This blog has been a long time coming. I've been meaning to post pictures of my English Zone on my blog, but only got around to taking pictures of it today. SO, below are a few pictures of the classroom I teach English in and spend my days hanging out in. I know this blog may seem rather boring, but I just wanted to share more of my life in Korea with you and this English Zone is a huge part of that. I took pictures from each corner of the room because I'm a nerd and that way you get the full effect.
This is a view of the classroom from my desk area. The back wall you see there is full of English posters to help the students, but I know none of the students read them.This is a view of the front of the class, where I spend most of my time teaching. That is my desk in the left corner and that TV you see is just taking up space. This is the last view of my English Zone. All of the orange and yellow construction paper collages you see were created by the grade 6 students. They wrote about their summer vacations and pasted them to the paper.
Ok, so I promise that is it for this blog. I hope you enjoyed reading it even though it was short and kind of lame, but I wanted you all to see where I spend my days 8:30 a.m. - 4:30 p.m. Also, the room looks a lot cleaner than it actually is, but I guess you can't expect much when they send the 6th grade students to clean it...Let's just say their idea of cleaning is less than ideal. They basically, hit each other with the miniature brooms, dust pans and towels used for cleaning. Plus, they scream and chase each other around the room. It makes me crazy and I have kicked them out before, so I'm not afraid to be a bitch to them. Sometimes they need to put in their place.
