Exciting with School Children, very nice

My time at the school was some of the best I have spent during my travels. Both students and teachers went out of their way to accommodate me, and I was Made to feel like one of the family.\\\" \\\"Physical education is something the children only have a cursory knowledge of, outside of football and early morning fitness they just don’t do any. Gradually over my stay we moved from basic stretches, hand/eye co-ordination Exercises and cardio vascular fitness up to running, marching and high speed Fitness games. The children lapped up every second of it, enjoying merely to be out of the classroom. Throughout the periods It was important to stress about health issues as well - why we should keep fit etc. Marching gave me the chance to inspect the students pointing out dirty fingernails, Clothing etc.\\\" \\\"Prior knowledge of you subject is of great importance - The children are Relying on you to teach them new and useful things. If you are interested in a subject, maybe you enjoyed it at school, and you feel you might like to pass it on. Think first, do you really know enough to spend maybe an hour a day teaching it, bearing in mind that the Nepalese are incredibly fast learners, and something that we would take a month to learn here, they have figured out in a week. Not perfectly, but enough to get by.\\\" \\\"To be honest, I think that during my time at the school, I learnt more than the students did. The Nepalese are a magical people, and after coming from a consumerism based society where community spirit is all but forgotten. They have rekindled my faith in humanity.\\\" If you want to know more about the programme and my experience send me e-mails Alexander Norton Payne
