A minute about... Our Lady Queen of Peace (School) #HogsAbroad in Ireland


I absolutely loved the energy in the classroom today! Madeline (my teaching partner) and I learned from yesterday, and we adjusted our lesson for this school. It was more disadvantaged than yesterday, but the students were just as willing and ready to learn as ever. It was interesting to compare the two schools. 
Today, the students were much more outgoing and had several questions for us. It was also the last day of school for this group before a week holiday, so it was somewhat relaxed, but still a great experience! Both schools in Limerick provided a great example to observe in this setting. I will miss all my new friends from both schools in Limerick, and hope they remember my time with them!
