My Favorite Part: My Students

Introduction:

Being a teacher in Indonesia, every day is filled with lots of students. I am also lucky enough to live in the dorms so even after I return home, I still get to be with my students. Now that I will return to the United States this week, the students will definitely be my hardest goodbye. Since the questions below are about kids, I asked some of my students and wrote down their responses. 

What do you eat for breakfast, lunch and dinner?:

"I eat rice for every meal. If I don't eat rice, I don't feel full. I also will eat chicken, fish, tofu, tempeh (traditional Southeast Asian soy product, originating from Indonesia) or maybe some vegetables."

What is your house like?:

"I live in the dorms at my school so right now, that is my house. I live with three other girls in one room. We have bunk beds, and I sleep on the bottom bunk."

What chores do you have at home?:

"When I am home during a holiday, I always help my mom cook and clean. I'm not very good at cooking though so I just do what she tells me to do."

What jobs do your parents have?:

"My mom is a teacher, and my dad works at the coal mines."

What time does school start, and what time do you go home?:

"My school starts at 7:15 AM, and I go home at 15:30 PM (3:30 PM)."
