Supplementing my income...

So, to supplement my meager income, I've agreed to teach one class a week with the Noisis Language School (www.noisis.cz) and I now have a private student. Luckily, both groups want the same thing: training to pass the CAE Cambridge English certificate. So, preparation should be fairly simple...Unfortunately, the class I'm teaching is 7.30-9.00, so bright and early...they have a slot they need to fill at the same time on Thursday which I was considering, but I teach from 11.00-19.30 on Thursdays, so I probably won't do it unless they offer me a pay rise. One can dream!

At the end of each class I have free discussion time for the students to speak as a class on whatever they want (in English of course). The American economy and the bailout are very popular topics, which sucks for me since I'm not very informed on the topic -- I've been avoiding it like the plague because I really don't want to think about it. Also, my command of econ is pitiful, so I know the situation is bad, but that's about it.
