Jason, to be fair, you didn’t get on a plane before last year.

Only two things she really needs to know:

1. Can I have a beer please.

2. Where is the toilet?

This is my Father’s EXACT line of reasoning when learning a foreign language for a vacation.

From a classroom teacher perspective, the amount of slang she’s going to run into with other 10-year olds is mind-boggling. When I was substitute teaching sometimes even I didn’t know what they were talking about. But on a basic level, I would say being able to ask for and understand directions is more important than paying for things in cash. Although covering money is important, the different coins and bills and their relative value. You don’t want some punk conning her out of her lunch money.

I can’t imagine doing something like that, staying in a foreign country at the age of 10!

Good luck, little Korean girl.
