Is it possible I have only been in cultural training for 5 days? I was thinking yesterday that it was 2 weeks! Impossible! My head is just about ready to explode. The language classes are really intense. We are learning to speak Russian 4-5 hours everyday. Afterwards and sometimes before, we have TEFL training and go on field trips. I get home from school and I have to study really hard to keep up…so far I have not done so well. It's too much information for my little brain to ingest all at once, I guess. I have been trying to learn to read and write Cyrillic while trying to memorize phrases at the same time. It's an incredible challenge.
Everything else here is okay. The weather is nice, my family wonderful, and the town is very nice. Tomorrow we will meet another cluster of volunteers in their town for cultural training.
