On Monday this week I went to the new HCT campus at Madinat Zayed. I got up very early and left Abu Dhabi at 6:45. The journey took 1.5 hours and there wasn't much to see on the way, but the road was excellent - very straight and empty. Madinat Zayed seems like a nice place. I was surprised that it was so green and clean. It is like a very small version of Al Ain.
The new college has great facilities: nice, bright classrooms, new computers, printers and smartboards and good furniture. The library isn't ready yet, but there is a librarian who is working on a plan for the library.
I taught a class of 25 lady students. They are beginners so they don't speak much English yet. They were very nice and friendly and very keen to study English.
It was a good experience and I had an interesting day. It is good to do something different sometimes. I hope I will go there again soon.
