Today was a great morning the teachers who came to the workshop were engaged and learning a ton. The work here is exhausting, and it is so great to be able to support these teachers of English in the public schools of Jordan to support there students better. The reality is, and most of them believe this, is that learning English is power for students, it will allow their students to dream big and open doors to jobs and university that they may not access otherwise. I heard a lot of the same excuses for low student performance here as I do at home. The other issue of course is learning to read and write in Arabic as well.
