First day in Bangkok

Well, I've made it thorough my first day in Thailand! We had "classes" I guess you could say all day. We went through the school system and expectation of the teachers, a language course that we will have everyday and a teaching course that we'll also have everyday. There are 64 of us in the program which is a pretty big group and we're placed pretty much all over Thailand. It's nice to meet everyone so I'll be able to visit them and get to see most of Thailand. By the end of the week, I'll be getting my Thai teaching certificate and heading off to Suphanburi. 

Our teacher for our teaching course said that most classes sizes run from 25 to 60+ students, so I'm hoping I'll be on the 25 side of it since I can't imagine having 60 students in one class! We're on our own for dinners so I think some of us will be going out tonight and experiencing Bangkok on our own which will be interesting! I guess last night some people went out to a bar and there was a band playing Johnny Cash all night and apparently he was a pretty good impersonator, so we'll see what tonight has to offer! Everything is good so far! Be in touch soon!
