Goodbye CRPAOS and Welcome CRRU!!

February 15^th – February 16^th

Teacher Hin and Teacher Puu pick us at 8.30 AM at our dorm. We drop our luggages and went inside the van. From CRPAOS to CRRU took 20 minutes. We arrived at CRRU and went to the International Office. Miss Nok and Mr. Teerawat welcome us and ask us about our practicum in CRPAO.

We had an emotional farewell with Teacher Hin and Teacher Puu. I’m crying when we said farewell. They are like our mother in CRPAOS, they always accomodate us. I really hate farewell. It makes me crying over and over again.

After Teacher Hin and Teacher Puu leave CRRU, we went back inside International Office and wait for our friends from different schools.

At 11 AM, Miss Nok take us to Faculty of Education to meet another students in CRRU. We share about everything. From the teaching methods until experiences in Thailand. I met Nam, the participant of Seateacher 4^th batch who was sent to Indonesia. She also shares her experiences in Indonesia.

We went back to International Office for lunch. After lunch, we also have a game with students of English Education. First, we have to introduce ourself. Then, we have to find our buddy through game.

This is my buddy, Namtan. She is majoring English Education and now in fourth year. She also had a teaching practice at CRPAOS so we share a lot of stories.

We went back to International Office at 3 PM. After that, the bus drop us to the hotel. Around 5 pm, I and my friends went to the market inside the campus. It looks like a walking street. I bought Pad Thai, Thai Tea, and fried chicken for dinner. After that, we went back to hotel and have dinner together.

At February 16^th, Miss Nok pick us at 8 PM. Today is our closing ceremony. We met the president of CRRU and he gave us a farewell. I got CRRU t-shirt and a certificate. After closing ceremony, we went to the meeting room to present our powerpoint or video. CRPAOS is the last school to present. We show the video that we’ve made. We close our presentation saying, “We’re not just a Teacher. We INSPIRE!”

This is our video.

After all presentations, we took photos before went back to hotel. It such a great time because tomorrow we will leave CRRU.

With Mr. Teerawat and Miss Nok
