Going to school in Korea was a much different experience for her. Korean schools are open six days a week, and the students have classes eight hours a day. Un Kyong thinks Korean schools are much tougher and the American students have an easy time. The Korean Teachers change classrooms, but the students don't. The students stay in the same room all day. In such a small country, every- one walks to school. If you don't think Korean classes were all that tough, check this: just the question of how tough Korean Math was gave her a headache. Math was her favorite class this year. Mr. Albright was a great help. She enjoyed math in Korea and mar- veled at the difference at how it's taught here. The Koreans teach mul- tipication to what we would call first graders. She loved Korea a lot and might go back there to live after she graduates. She's certain that she'll go back to vis- it at least once to decide whether the US is her new home. Her family moved to Castroville in April, and they still maintain their Korean tradi- tions. She never did eat a Cafeteria lunch, preferring instead a traditional Korean lunch of Kim Pap. QQ Qi Freshmen 157
