Elizabeth speaking to some of her potential adult students.

We've been working closely with one of our friends to brainstorm ideas for the village. One of the suggestions was Adult English classes with the possibility of expanding to other languages - Hebrew (very practical for those who want to work in Israel - if they can get there), German, Italian - and even potentially some vocational training - electrician, plumbing, etc. The turn-out was decent, and Elizabeth managed to explain everything in Arabic (six hours of prep for ten minutes of talking)! English classes start on Wednesday, so we'll see.
