Hola everybody!
Today was my first day at the language school. I woke up super early (6:30am!!) so I could eat some breakfast and walk to school. My mama tica (Costa Rican host mom), Zoila made me breakfast and walked with me to the school to show me where it is. It´s about a 20-25 minute walk from their house. Once I got there I had to take a placement exam so they know which level of Spanish to place me in. I don´t know which level I placed in but I´m proud of how I did as the other students in my level seem to speak pretty well so that means I do too!
Classes begin at 8:00am every day. My teacher´s name is Jose and he´s really nice, helpful, and understanding, as any language teacher should be! Turns out that teaching Spanish to non-speakers is just his day job and his real passion is acting! I can´t seem to escape them even when abroad haha! He said he has a play that opens next Thursday. I´ll ask him tomorrow if it´s possible to see it, I´ve never seen theatre in Spanish before!
Anyways, I´m off to the school again. There´s a tour of Heredia (the city where I´m staying) at 4:00pm and I don´t want to miss it.
Til next time, hasta luego!
