Excel, Biogas, volleyball, oh my!

I am currently volunteering at SECMOL (www.secmol.org), and the experience so far is amazing.  The volunteers, the staff, the students are all such great people.  I am teaching EXCEL!, helping with a biogas reactor design, playing volleyball daily with a bunch of competitive 17-yo boys, so that's hilarious, and in general being constantly amazed, humbled, and excited about alternative methods of education. 

I have about 5 posts waiting for good internet/wifi so I can upload pics, but in the meantime, just know I'm off influencing young minds, and having mine influenced also! 

And a side note: Research indicates 100% of Ladakhi teens like Justin Bieber (sp).  Sample size:4.
