Week 3

This week we met many of our Local English Teachers (LETs) and began to work with them in planning sample lessons. I'm also posting some pictures of a school that I visited in Nan-An near the coast. We also met some people from the Yilan School board and saw the current and former director of the Foundation for Scholarly Exchange (FSE - the people in charge of us here) at dinner. I went to Taipei again for the weekend and visited some famous sites there but I forgot my camera. So in order to show all of you I looked them up and then got some picture online.

  2. I loved visiting the National Palance Museum! Could stay there several days following the exhibits. You are so considerate to look up some photos online so we can see where you have gone sightseeing!
