Spanish out French in

Yeah, right.

So I just found out my travel details after time in the capital Rabat, I am going to Ait Melloul, the inverse distance to the usefulness of my Spanish. Spanish (which I have been practicing daily) is spoken in Northern Morocco, I am going 5 1/2 hours south.......

So, back to the library. Turn in my beloved Spanish on CD course. Check out the dreaded French course once again. Oui. I can do this.

How did I wind up bound for Morocco?

In  2012, I learned about an opportunity through IREX and the Department of State for teachers in the United States. The program selected experienced teachers to globalize their curriculum through training and coursework as well as an international field experience. Each year I would get a notice that applications were open, and each year I made an excuse as to why I couldn't go. Early 2015 came another noticed and I decided to do it before I could talk myself out of it. I worked my way through the rigorous application process and was thrilled when I learned in June 2015 that I was one of 72 teachers in the United States selected as a fellow in the program.
