I will continue to put time into the classroom until mid June which will then count towards my 20 days next year. This was my first year of five since my retirement and to put it into a monetary perspective, affords me an additional (before taxes) amount of $500 per month (times ten months). Prices on all consumer items (except maybe the kosher polish hot dog at Costco) have gone up... and noticeably. <BR/><BR/>Reading of your venture into teaching English in a couple of weeks is of particular interest... and something I will follow with great interest. Thank you for sharing your evolutions and machinations on the topic... much appreciated. Also really enjoy the piece on your evolving relationship with Pim! <BR/><BR/>Inspiring! -Mark Levymark2uhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05433456494735514799noreply@blogger.com
