So, the first week is up, time for a brief summary.
My work begins as to approximately one at noon. From there the kids a spin. Until about three must then only times the homework be made. Small teach kids the basics (yes, Julia makes Now here voluntarily math!) and English homework are my specialties. What strikes me after the few days here is that many large gaps of the children what she regards education, the ... I am considering something like a regular private lesson offer ... At three, the kids eat, and then a half hour tea break is for the social workers and me ... Oh, and without "arbata" So tea here goes nothing into Lithuania.

Well, I have to say but in all honesty that the work at the moment very unusual, demanding and different from what I know the from my previous experience with children. The biggest problem is simply the fact that I almost do not speak Lithuanian.
AAAAB that will change as of Monday . There's the first time for me to say: "Prasom kalbete lietuvski. Speak Lithuanian alias Monday for the first time language course .
Great news in my social life. Meanwhile, I know hi
him eat really quite a few people I invite also busy in my apartment, evening cook s with them and chatting. Yesterday, for example, four Elektrenai there and we have in my kitchen, which is slowly gaining aesthetic quality, made with a cozy lap Lithuanian pistachios (the first course I have eaten with skin), chocolate, chips and beer. Very nice. And with some of them I will go in two weeks after Vilnius on a MTV Party where most bands play Lithuania . Supi, good music there is still the same d azu ...
