Yesterday was my first day of classes and everything went surprisingly well. I was actually really nervous on Sunday night so I did not sleep well at all and due to the jet lag I woke up at 4:30 on Monday morning and could not go back to sleep. So I only got about 3 hours of sleep before my first day of teaching, but this affected me much less than I thought it would. My first three classes were at a factory where they refurbish and overhaul train locomotives. These classes were all small with one or two people in each. After these I had a class with 5 people at an automotive repair place with students ranging from 22 to 53 years old. This class was fun because they preferred to have conversation rather than do book work. When the older man was speaking about his wife, he said his “women” is at home which gave me the opportunity to correct him as well as teach the class about Mormonism. Needless to say, all of the men in the class very much liked the concept of polygamy while the women did not.
