Enthusiastic new teachers add a big jolt of precious energy that keeps the ICBIE community motivated.  Educators who come from affluent countries get swept into the simple pleasures of the happy Ribeira locals, and they cannot fathom the delight of our Bahians, when they gather for a new course with them.   The arrival of Louise Audette has set off an explosion of excitement that has infected everyone; even Marlene says “Louise è fantastica!”  And to prove her point, she sent some more pictures of this week’s English lessons.
