Hello, I am making this video specifically for my students in the first of ESL.

2
00:00:06,669 --> 00:00:09,230
I wanted to make this video to say goodbye.

3
00:00:09,910 --> 00:00:17,750
Goodbyes are something that can be very sad, they can be difficult and hard in life,

4
00:00:17,750 --> 00:00:20,949
but I also think that they're really important for us.

5
00:00:21,489 --> 00:00:25,850
And because of that, I'm making a video today to say goodbye to you all.

6
00:00:25,850 --> 00:00:32,829
in this last year together I have had such a good time getting to know you all I feel so lucky

7
00:00:32,829 --> 00:00:40,729
and thankful that I have had the opportunity to have small group conversations with you in pairs

8
00:00:40,729 --> 00:00:47,049
I've really loved asking you questions to get to know you some serious questions some silly

9
00:00:47,049 --> 00:00:54,030
questions and I've also loved practicing dialogues with all of you so the conversations back and

10
00:00:54,030 --> 00:01:00,229
forth. I'm so thankful for the time that we were able to spend together and I know that it ended

11
00:01:00,229 --> 00:01:07,849
a bit earlier than we thought it would but I am just so grateful for the time that we were able

12
00:01:07,849 --> 00:01:14,450
to spend together in person having real conversations together about our lives and when

13
00:01:14,450 --> 00:01:21,750
we weren't talking in small groups with pairs we were having whole class activities together.

14
00:01:21,750 --> 00:01:31,329
I remember our Thanksgiving class I remember some with some of your classes I had the newspaper

15
00:01:31,329 --> 00:01:37,590
activity that we were working together on and all of those are just amazing memories I want you all

16
00:01:37,590 --> 00:01:43,349
to know that I care for you very much and I have really appreciated the time that we've been able

17
00:01:43,349 --> 00:01:50,010
to spend together in this last year unfortunately I will not be back next year I'm going to move

18
00:01:50,010 --> 00:01:57,049
back to Sacramento in California to be closer to my family and work for a bit from there but I'm

19
00:01:57,049 --> 00:02:01,890
really going to miss you all. I will think of you often and I hope you have the best summer

20
00:02:01,890 --> 00:02:04,290
and the best year. Bye everybody!
