May 11, 2009 marks the first day of my 13-month temporary teaching job as an EFL Specialist here at Lackland Airforce Base'e Defense Language Institute English Language Center.
I was amazed at the professionalism of all men and women of the DLI offices. I was first brought by my manager to the Center for Civilian Personnel of the US Air Force where I was processed - meaning I filled up many sheets of important documents related to my employment, each division spoke before us, explained everything that need to be known by all employees present today as our day of employment.
After this, I was picked up by my boss and brought to the DLI center where I was met by a few top brass, then I was introduced to an important person who is handling my security clearance. From her office I was ushered into the supervisor who introduced me to the American Language Course . We previewed the Pre-service 2009 handbook, an Overview of the American Language Course, and other points of interest.
I was met by my mentor who discussed with me many of her experiences as a language teacher in the DLI.
More to follow. . . .
