He writes about how his Russian is getting better. He can read Russian and English product labels, but he has a hard time reading the other languages that are on Turkish, Iranian, Chinese, and European products. He tells his family which countries his favorite products come from. He talks about his work; the school now has textbooks so he can teach and plan lessons better, his students are getting better at English, and he is attempting to teach the secretary how to use the computer. He writes about how he is trying to access the computer room, but the computer teacher doesn’t like sharing the key to the room. This leads into him talking about Soviet culture and the Russian word for sneaky. Two pictures are included in this letter: 1) his friend Jeremy and him with their town’s statue of Lenin, and 2) the Green Bazaar in Almaty Format The file format, physical medium, or dimensions of the resource scan of printed letter
