This has been a very busy week. Last week I was busy planning two big lessons for the new employees at the company, and today I finished the second lesson. The first lesson that I did yesterday went OK, but not great (I didn’t plan enough to keep them talking the whole time) but the second lesson today went very well. After finishing up this lesson I won’t have another class with these students until we start weekly small group lessons in October.
So this means that things will be considerably less stressful over the next four months. I always enjoy teaching my one-on-one lessons, and now I can concentrate on them alone. I have some ideas that I’d like to try out with some of my students, and it should be a good chance to carry out the lessons without distractions.
The weekend is also here, and it will be a little bit on the lonely side for me. Kuniko has to do an overnight excursion with her coworkers, and so I’ll be on my own all day Saturday and Sunday. Depending on the weather it might be a hike, it might be movies, or it might be a combination of both. I do need to catch up on “Mad Men”, so it might be a marathon complete with Old Fashioneds… Sounds like something Kuniko wouldn’t want to be around to see.
