I finished up week 1 of school today. Its gone well, things settled down after the first 2 days where classes were split and new students arrived late. My class has 11 people in it which is a good number. We are doing the pre-beginners course, and the teacher, Roberta, is great. An interesting mix of people too in my class, some who have relocated to Italy and need to learn the language, 2 who are in Rome as diplomats, and a couple of au pairs.
Daily schedule : wake up from the noise of the kids leaving for school and the parents heading off to gym at about 8:00. I then go down to breakfast, followed by getting ready for school. I have 2 options for getting to school, bus or underground metro. I have being favouring the bus in the morning as I listen to the radio (another way I can perhaps improve my italian) and then the metro home (normally because I am hungry and want to get home ASAP to eat!). The kids get home anytime between 3 and 5 and get on with their homework. Anything in english I help with, otherwise I leave them to it. When they done we watch english television or play some games, all the time working on their english language...dinner anytime between 7:30 and 8:15 or so, and then I am free to do as I please.
Anyway the weather report promises good weather this weekend, so I have plans to meet up with some classmates Saturday...
