It’s the end of the semester and it’s the end of of my professional life as a teacher- for now at least. Some final thoughts on what its like to be a teacher in Thailand. Included are the traditional class photographs I take at the end of the semester and a view of where I worked!

The first semester is suddenly over and the last day of classes left me with some interesting gifts. There is no doubt that I am going to miss my students. That is with the exception of all the cell phone talking, bathroom breaks, and lateness. There always room for improvement next semester.

You may think this is repetitive, another post about monkeys and all, but I assure you this is none like the last. Ham the Chimp was the first primate to ever go into space and needless to say became pretty famous for it. My students will fill you in on the rest.

In an ongoing battle to come out as the tough guy, my students are most certainly undermining me by taking advantage of the fact I can’t understand what the hell they are saying to each other. What did I ever get myself into.
