AIESEC required us to write a 800 words feedback,I really got a lot from this journey.
Before I went to Thailand,they asked why you choose Thailand why you choose this project many times,for real,at first I was not that sure that why I made this choice,I just wanted to walk out to know another country and culture,but they said before you went, you'd better think clearly why you go and make sense of everything.
I went Thailand on January 11th with this question. I attended the training of TNI,I made new friends,I still felt confused.
Then on January 15th started my teaching life.At first I didn't know what to teach,I didn't know anything ,I went to class and generally test the English level of my students.I was surprised that they're not as bad as I thought,actually they know English and they are kind to learning new languages. I started my teaching ,first English and then Chinese,they are really good at remembering things,they kept shouting ”你好老师””早上好””谢谢老师”,I'm really happy that my teaching ever brought something different to them.
I taught Chinese songs and they really like it.It was Wednesday and I was sick,I didn't go to class.When I was lying on my bed suffering from my stomach,suddenly I heard some students singing outside my house,they sang louder and louder,I opened my window and saw those students with smiles on their faces “啊朋友再见,啊朋友再见,啊朋友再见吧再见吧再见吧” that's the song I taught.That day I told them that we never say goodbye,I'll be back one day,I don't know if they can understand or not but they kept nodding their heads.I really love you so much ,you're my first students and you made feel being loved and respected all the time.
About my teachers,they really took good care of me ,they cooked for me and helped me with everything,I'm so shamed that I made you drove long to send me to those bus stations and thanks so much that you never complained about it.
About friends from this project,I wanna say at first When the teachers asked "who you're going with ",I would answer "other volunteers",and you become "my friends ",thanks so much for always helping me,I'll cherish the memories and remember those days spent with you guys.
