Last night we spent a long time with the children preparing them for the arrival of our first foreign guest next week. We held an extra long English conversation class with less Nepali translation help than usual to get them used to what it will be like with volunteers who cannot speak Nepali. During this class, we also stressed the importance to practice speaking regularly in English outside of class with foreign guests to get comfortable with English as a conversational medium and not just a class subject. Finally, we gave them a clear and detailed explanation of why volunteers will be coming to the orphanage to stay with us, what the volunteers’ job will be, and how the children are expected to act and interact with the volunteers. And of course we told them what a wonderful opportunity this is for cultural exchange and a better understanding of the world for them that most children in Nepal will never get. Overall, it was a productive and satisfying night, and most of the children seem ready to embrace this unbelievable future.
