One of My Favorite Classes in Malta
I really miss these students. They were funny and smart and liked to talk a lot (in English). Here they are, starting from the left: sweet and soft-spoken Jessica from Russia; Raquel with beautiful blue eyes from Spain, Gabriel, also from Spain, who would always help me up the stairs with all my junk, Marike—the pretty blonde from Germany; next to gorgeous Gonzalo from Spain; Linda in the black from Italy; and that’s me in the red shirt next to Matthias from Germany (with the insane laugh and obsession with Maltese toilets) in the Hawaiian shirt. And in the front is Angelina from Poland. These students left about two weeks ago and I remember each and every one of them.

Yes, Dee, I've been very lucky with this and the other advanced classes--Ilene

It's always difficult to say good-bye to a really great class. You'll be hearing from some of them in the future. They will be ever grateful. Keep up the good work. I think having such a nationality mixture is great and encourages the practice of English because they didn't have a language common to all. Be well.
