We finally arrived at our host school, Angela Moreno V. Galvez. It is a secondary Catholic school for girls with about 600 students. School hours are 7 am to 1 pm M-W and 1 pm to 6 pm on Tuesday and Thursday. Clever translated for us since most of the girls spoke very little English. They asked plenty of questions, though. Most of the questions were about American culture- common foods, leisure activities, tourist sites, Donald Trump, the immigration crisis, popular dances and our schools. Elise and I taught 11 different sections over the 4 days, running from class to class when the bell rang. In Tarma, the teachers move, which is a bit different from our school system. It was a great experience! After each class, all the students wanted to do was take “selfies!” By the end of the week, Elise and I both agreed that we would never want to be celebrities. The picture-taking was just too much! LOL!
