Thais love their motorcycles...and dogs too

Aerobics...Thai style

so I think one of my favorite and most entertaining work out regimens is aerobics. In Thailand, aerobics is quite the event. There is nothing quite like the rush of thai music choreographed against the beating breasts of little old ladies..and one white guy.

Motivating students to study content in English outside of school can be a challenge. Furthermore, many students have not acquired study skills necessary to succeed in subjects taught by Falang teachers, who often put greater emphasis on critical thinking than what many Thai students are used to. However, one strategy I have found very helpful is study jam sessions outside of school. Before each unit test, I schedule a review session with my students at the local KFC (Kentucky Fried Chicken) within one of the department stores in town. We complete a study guide, answer any questions students may have, and then enjoy a wonderful meal together. Students receive bonus points and an extra study guide for the test. More importantly, we build community within the class and experience learning in a meaningful way outside of school.
