Impressed

I'm so impressed with my student, Tim (his English name). He is my first High School student, so I was a little unsure of what to expect. He totally blew me away. He asked me all about the current events in the U.S., including the Zimmerman trial and "wanted to know what is really going on, since the media portrays such a limited perspective."

WHAT!?!?

A 17-year-old that understands more than most adults in this country? Wow!

He then went on to tell me that his goal is to work for the United Nations as an advocate for human rights. I think I just met a new hero. I am looking forward to learning all I can from this young man.

In other news, my weekend just started. So, that's exciting
