We are working as volunteers in a private English school, every Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday afternoon. We take the subway to the end of Line E, which is Plaza de los Virreyes. Gaston picks us up at 4:30 and drives us to the school, and at 8:30, he drives us back to the subway for our trip home. During our time there, we help out in classrooms, with students ranging in age from six to adult. Working with the middle school aged kids, the high school kids, and the adults are our favorite classes. We actually speak a lot of Spanish there, as well as English. If we have questions about how to say something in Spanish, we often ask our teachers who we are working with, because they speak excellent English, but they are Argentinians. Every Wednesday evening, there is a conversation exchange, where anybody in the school (I think just the adults) can come for an hour to speak in English, and we can speak in Spanish. It’s always interesting to find out about their lives, and to talk about whatever subject anybody is interested in. Here is Mike, talking with Frank and Guadaulupe. Guadalupe wants to become an English teacher, and her English is perfect. Frank works in the banking industry, and has to know English for his job. Monica had her small group also. They were talking about movies and TV shows. Here’s a photo of the whole group that was there this week. It’s a pretty big effort for some of the students to come to the sessions. They are very grateful for the opportunity to speak with native speakers of English, and of course, we are grateful also, to get to know new people, and to practice our Spanish with them.
