Visual Learning

Today in Thai class our Ajaan Sasithorn finally told us how we got placed in our class. During our first two days of Thai class--weeks ago--we learned Thai basics from several different teachers. Following our classes the teachers met and discussed our different learning styles. I am placed in a visual-kinesthetic class. It is so wonderful that we are taught based on our learning styles and I can feel affects already. Again today I felt great after leaving Thai class. We are beginning to read and write faster and faster. Next week we will have to speak in all Thai and won't be allowed to reference our notebooks. I am a little nervous about that, but I think that it'll do me a lot of good.

I am looking forward to our NGO visits tomorrow. I am visiting a school for Burmese immigrants/refugees. We'll be hearing their stories about life under military rule.
