English class with Hailey
For the month of July, we've been fortunate enough to have Hailey, a Teach for America Teacher in Texas, as our most recent volunteer. Hailey has helped transform "Homework night" (Thursday nights at the office) into Clase de Ingles. Kids can still come with their homework, but the appeal of learning English seems far more popular. Homework night has been difficult to nail down, as it seems the kids don't have much homework at all. In a city full of tourists, that imports a lot of its pop culture from the US, learning English is a valuable skill both professionally and in order to under a lot of the music and movies that surround them. Hailey has put her classroom teaching skills to work as the class has averaged over 30 girls the last few weeks!
