Teaching at Life University

This week Ben and I have had the privilege of teaching at Life University in Sihanoukville, Cambodia.  We had to take a four hour bus ride to get here, but it was well worth it.  The fresh air of this ocean town rests in stark contrast to the pollution of Phnom Pehn.  Although the beaches here are still trash-laden the water is beautiful and the smallness of this place gives it a much different feel than what we have been used to.  This place is laid out a bit awkwardly as it stretches a long way down the coast.  The school is further in town, but it is on the side of a hill and therefore you get a clear ocean view from the balcony.  The breeze coming off the water cools things down considerably too, which is a welcome change.  

Ben and I taught a Public Speaking course condensed into one week.  The students did a fantastic job.  We spent 7 hours in class on Monday alone, which would have killed me if I didn't have his partnership. Ben is a great teacher.  He does a fantastic job teaching. He speaks slowly and clearly and can come up with a dozen examples off the top of his head, which I can never do. 

We wanted to get something up so that you knew what we were doing.  We will post pictures once we get home and much more of our impression of this town.  There is much more to write as it has a flavor all its own.
