I taught Mama Judith and Isabelle in the morning. I think Mama Judith must be really clever because she had remembered a lot of what we had covered in the first lesson despite having no time to study in the week. The only thing she is struggling with is pronunciation, which honestly is normal. In Rwanda there is no differentiation between 'l' and 'r', and sounds like 'th' and 'sty' are completely alien.
Here is a picture of my classroom.
After teaching, I went into town to meet up with Nathalie, the Congolese refugee I told you about a few weeks ago. We went out to lunch together and were later joined by her brother and friend. It was really nice to see her again, and I can't wait to go and visit her in the camp next year. She also wants to learn English, so I promised to teach her whenever she's in Kigali.
