In two weeks my students are graduating. I can't believe my time with them is coming to a close. This past month has been filled with practical exams, written exams and presentations. I don't know who was more nervous when handing out the written exams, them or me. I wanted them to pass so badly and to understand the material. I was so proud grading their papers and seeing that they had all passed! I remember wondering if I was going to have any teaching affect when I started. Its been such a blessing to watch them learn and grow. To see them use tests and measures with patients to draw a correct assessment is amazing and so very rewarding.
So in honor of all the students passing my exams, I had them over for dinner the other night. I had their country chop (fufu and njamajama) and made sphaghetti so they could try 'white man chop'. Needless to say, the country chop was gone and I had a lot of spaghetti for leftovers. It was such a great evening of relaxing and enjoying each other's company before they graduate and are scattered throughout the Cameroon Baptist Convention hospitals.
