It's been good here. The new class buildings we are in are like 6 floors and really nice. We even have an observation room to watch teaching demos. Our teachers are really cool and really spiritual. Our morning class teacher is Sister Tuttle and our afternoon class teacher is Brother Dummer. They both are really helpful with teaching us. I'm slightly, maybe getting a little more comfortable with teaching people. My district is super awesome. We are one of the only districts that stay together and do things together. They have helped a lot with the rough days when I feel really homesick. My companion is pretty much Elder Protical because he is a rule follower in every sense of the word. It's probably good for me though to have a companion that follows all the rules.
So we do TRCs where we contact people that work at the MTC but act like investigators and teach them 2 or 3 times. This past week we had 2 ladies that we were teaching. The first one was from the contacting activity and the other was a referral. The first lady was really good to teach because she asked questions and took notes and what not. The second lady was hard and teacher her was a drag. We weren't prepared and she didn't talk much. Those 2 lessons with the second lady took my confidence down quite a bit, it's just more learning experience. We had a contacting activity again yesterday and the guy we talked to is pretty good and I think we'll be able to have a good teaching experience with him. I'm learning a lot and some days take forever to get through with 2 four hour class times, but it's good for me.
That's awesome that Brigham got first in speech and drama. It's going to be fun to have Stockton back after the semester. Hopefully Mitchell can get all his work done and have a good attitude throughout the day. I'm glad to hear that you and mom are doing well. You guys have given me so much and I'll never be able to repay you for that. Love you guys and hope that things keep going well.
Love,
Elder Smith
