Gave A Lesson In Spanish

hello everyone. 

 

 

This was my first week where my companion and I gave a lesson in spanish. I am no bueno at spanish, but I hope to get better through studying. It went pretty well if you take into account that we've only been speaking spanish for a week and a half. She is very nice and talks really slowly so that we can understand her, she is also a returned missionary from Chile so she's able to give us some good advice after each lesson to help us improve our spanish and our teaching skills. I am definitely getting used to the MTC, I thought It was gonna be hard to feel the spirit during classes because they were online but that hasn't been much of a problem. I also keep trying to hold in my farts and burps on the zoom call even though I muted most of the time so that took a lot of getting used to as well, hehe. I would say the most difficult part about my mission so far is the amount of studies they have us do when we're not in class. it's difficult to stay focused when you're just at home spending time with your family.

 

 

all in all It was a pretty fun week at the at home MTC and I am super excited to go and get my endowments on friday, and listen to the conference this weekend. Also for general conference and not just because we don't have class that saturday, hehe. anyways i'm learning a ton and i hope you all have an amazing week. And trask... el burro sabe mas que tu. lo siento.

hola mi amigos spanish is going surprisingly well. My teachers are speaking faster and faster and it's a little hard for me to keep up but I'm definitely doing a lot better than I was at the beginning of this week. I can't have a normal conversation with someone but i can give a pretty decent lesson (i think) and answer half of the questions they ask. This week me and my comp Elder Burke were in the middle of a companionship study on zoom when some random guy shows up on the call. we weren't told that we were gonna teach a lesson so we didn't really know who this guy was. it was really sketchy because all the lights were out and his face was all shadowy so we thought he was just gonna drop his pants and moon us. hehe. so we just started to teach him. He was very receptive to the gospel. that was sarcasm btw. he was on his phone the whole time. we asked if he believed in god or christ and he said yes but when we asked him to explain to us what he knew h...
