2nd Day of school!!




Here we are...

Another day of school complete.

Today we were not really expecting to teach...

But, as it goes in India we ended up being thrown into classes to teach today.

So we took over the classes.

The absent teachers were suppose to teach Telugu and Hindi.

We were completely ready to take on these classes.
Plus we have been practicing Telugu, we would be fine.
And how hard can Hindi be?

We would enter the class promptly and announce, "Hello, we are here to teach Telugu and Hindi."

The children would just laugh at us.

We could not figure out why they were laughing.

Just because we are from America, does not mean we don't know how to speak Telugu and Hindi, come on.

It became a problem, because we could speak Telugu and Hindi so amazingly well, but they could not understand our American accents.

So, we stuck to the easy stuff, English, drawing, and computers.

It was a good, but exhausting day.

Who knew Telugu and Hindi would be so hard to teach?
