Well, summer camp has begun. So far, I have survived. The camp consists of half of Bin Jiang's students and half of students from other schools. There is a big difference in the communication gap, but I feel it's because our students are used to us. I have gotten some blank stares, but they get used to me within in 5 min. Although I'm tired, I am still finding joy in teaching this culture. It's nice to see their personalities slowly evolve. It's almost like they are fighting an inner battle on whether to be creative or just play it safe. I hope that I'm building their confidence enough for them to be creative and not to worry about making mistakes. Sooner or later they have to learn that mistakes are a part of life. I do love their determination to be their best at any and everything. I just pray they find a positive balance. Videos coming soon! Until then, the countdown continues! 8 days to go!
