I’m two days away from my move and most of my preparations are nearing completion. I had my last Eikaiwa(English Conversation) class this evening and I was quite moved by it. I think when I decided to teach that class every week, it was one of the best decisions I ever made. I’ve met so many wonderful people through my Eikaiwa, and having to say goodbye to them is really hard for me. It’s not really goodbye, but it’s still going to be a long distance. Everyone even had a farewell message for me. I was really touched by their kind words. We all have to move on sometime. I’m glad I got the opportunity to do this. A small note for those of you who are coming to teach in Japan this year(oh yes, I know you’re reading this.) If you get the chance to teach a volunteer Eikaiwa class, take it without hesitation. It will be one of the best things you ever do. So here is a kind shout out to Mr. and Mrs. Honda, Atsuko, Eriko, and Meiko. Thank you for all the great memories. You were my best students.
