A Change In My School Life

One of the many differences between home and Ecuador is school. Some people might think that school in Ecuador is easy and short. In a way, it is but not all the time. School in Ecuador is indeed shorter by almost 3 hours but it is a lot more tiring! School is only Spanish so its hard trying to understand everything. At least our teachers speak English.

School here is very different because it’s shorter, more tiring and but more interesting. School here is shorter because there is only one subject, Spanish! But Spanish can get very tiring after you have been doing it for 4 hours everyday! In addition, I'm the only student in my class. Even though I learn a LOT more than I do at home, its still hard to answer all questions and do all the homework. Even though I do all the Berkeley Carroll homework at home, it still feels like I have more in Ecuador. Finally, school here is interesting because most days, we go out on field trips to different places like, a museum, the local market, and a pottery studio.

Overall, our school here is shorter but more tiring. But school at home is longer and less tiring (usually).

This is what our school looks like from the outside
