My first class is very interesting. There is a six year old in class who is the most motivated student. He knows how to makes sentence verbally. He is so eager to say the same sentences other students are suppose to make. The other students are just as smart, but it's interesting watching him in class.  All of the classes are great though. I just wish they would really start using English more in class.
