Teaching English in Cambodia



We got the opportunity on Monday night to attend an English class at our guide's house before having dinner with his family. Brent and I met with 3 young girls, (9, 9 and 15) who spoke remarkably good English. The 15 year old answered almost every question, but they were doing great overall. When we asked if they could count to ten, she said "I can count to 100" and then she proceeded to count to 100...one by one. She was very proud of herself. So we were, since we can still only barely say hello and thank you in Khmer, the local language! As for the dinner, check our next post titled "8-Legged Dining in Cambodia"
