On July 31, the American student teachers prepared to leave Kaohsiung. They traveled to the airport with their host families, and found a large group of San Sin students waiting there for them to say “good-bye.” The students gave their American teachers some farewell gifts and many, many hugs. The host families wished them well, and expressed the hope that some of the American student teachers would return to Taiwan for next year’s summer program.
Many last-minute pictures were taken to help them remember their new and wonderful across-the-globe friendships. They promised to stay in touch on Facebook and through Skype and e-mail…..and they separated with waves and tearful eyes!
Once back in Tallahassee, the American student teachers reunited at the Bamboo House, their favorite Taiwanese restaurant, for a Summer English Program follow-up meeting with Dr. O'Kon, Mr. John Gelabert, and Mr. Jerry Fussell!
