American Corner, Balti

Here are a few photos from my presentation about the US Supreme Court (featuring "Supreme Court Bingo" and a gavel pencil (from the US Supreme Court gift shop) as a prize, of course!)

The audience consisted primarily of high school students who are learning English and their teachers, but there were also a few members of the general public as well as some Americans working in Balti on other exchange programs.

For example, the English Language Fellow attended the lecture and brought a few of his students. And I met an interesting Peace Corps Volunteer who is a recent law school graduate and is developing a project with a shelter/agency working with women who are survivors of domestic violence.

It was a pleasure to see Doamna Dina from Alecu Russo University at the presentation as well

There weren't too many questions during my presentation, but I very much enjoyed the one-on-one conversations with the teachers and students afterwards.

I was impressed by the American Corners facility in Balti. What a great outreach opportunity
