Beginnings in Provo, UT

We've just returned from our TESOL training at BYU in Provo.  Was pretty much a fire-hose process and yet the presenters were all exceptional.  The first week included a get together in Springville which ended up with rain but brought our group closer together, a beginning with survival Chinese - "ni hau", and an evening together as a group at the Provo temple.  Also had visits from others who'd taught in the China Teachers Program, a BYU and NFL football player Chad Lewis, and a person who'd been in Tiananmen Square in 1989.  I think we are prepared as best they could prepare us.
