My walk to school is about 20 minutes and what I figure to be about a mile away. The above images are a selection from my walk to school. In the top image is the street I live on. That monstrous building in the distance is a Samsung Electronics building. It is huge, I don't know what they make there, but it is bigger than you can imagine it to be. The two very tall towers are half of what is known as Metapolis, the center piece of Dongtan, home too a very large mall equipped with a movie theater and ice skating rink.  My school is located on the 6th floor of a 9 story building and I have my own classroom, As you can see below it is small, but my largest class is only 12 students, so it is all we need. Makes for a much better student to teacher ratio, and I doubt I could handle more students, because with the 100 students that I see in a week, it keeps me busy to say the least. Working 10 hour days usually. Today for instance, I arrived at 1230 and left at 1030. Just a brief addition, I will try to write again as I find time, post questions in the comments and I will try and answer specifics. More to come of course...
