After my biology professor went on a holiday to have a Spanish immersion Costa Rica, she is finally back in teaching. While she was gone, a boring teacher became a substitute for her class. Our whole class is definitely happy that she has returned. We planned to make her return to our class extra special by making her a banner that writes “Welcome Home”. The moment she entered the room we all greeted her with smiles and she almost cried with tears of joy.

Being away for more than a month, our teacher had a lot of stories to share to us. She didn’t only get to visit her relatives there, but she also learned a second language. She does not look too sporty so we were surprised that she did try to learn how to surf. She was great in telling stories and just listening to her made us feel that we have also been in Costa Rica. I hope I can also learn to surf the waves someday and perhaps also learn the beautiful language of Spanish.
