Staging

Today we board a plane for Amsterdam, and tomorrow we will spend the day flying to Dar es Salaam in Tanzania. After two days in Dar es Salaam, we will go to Morogoro in the mountains for 10 weeks of pre-service training.

We just finished our staging event in Philadelphia, which was a chance to get to know the other 38 teachers in our group and learn about the way the Peace Corps operates. The last two days have been excellent. There will be 40 math, science and technology teachers going to Tanzania together and training together. After training, we will be dispersed to secondary schools throughout the country. We are all very excited about the next two years.
