LESOTHO!!! (again I apologize for the caps). Teaching math and leaving october 12th people! Things could not have worked out better, and I am feeling so fortunate. I cannot wait to get to know the rest of my group of 30!
my story
In February 2011, I was nominated to serve in the Peace Corps in Sub-Saharan Africa leaving September 2011 in Secondary Math Education. This blog demonstrates my roller coaster ride to receiving my official invitation. It all worked out, and I was invited to serve in Lesotho leaving October 12, 2011 for Secondary Math Education. Am I lucky or whaaaat??
