im going to start blogging again… my life is now more exciting and i have things that i want to blog about

its my first day of work at asknlearn today… i went for a short interview this morning, then after that, i started work immediately.. im posted to new town sec, as a replacement teacher (note, not that kind of sit there and slack a relief teacher)

i was introduced to the school by my colleages… then went for a cheap and good lunch at the school canteen….

my first lesson today was to help out the chinese teacher in her lesson… the students had to recorded their voices to practice for their chinese oral exam… it was quite simple, just need to hand out the mics and set up the hardware/software…

the next lesson was HELL!! i was told by the company that i’ll be helping a group of 7 students to complete their photoshop poster…. but instead, i had to TEACH a whole class of MORE THAN FORTY students, ALONE!!! i was like WTF… i have zero teaching experience, the company DID NOT give me any training on how to teach, there was NOTHING planned for the students to do!! and the class consist of sec 1 to 4 students! i had to quickly plan the lessons myself…

the teacher in charge told me they have already had a lot of experience with photoshop.. i decided to let the sec 1 and 2 do a simple tutorial, and the sec 3 and 4 do a more advanced one… i thought i could just leave them alone and let them follow the tutorial… at first some of the kids said that they have done those tutorials many times before, so i thought they are experts already (they are from the it club anyway) BUT TO MY HORROR, after a while, most of them DUNNO how to do the simple tutorial!!!

i went to teach them one by one, but i cant handle a class of forty alone! after a while i decided to actually guide and teach them the tutorial with the projector… some of the students were really fast (and did not need my help at all), and some of them just cant do photoshop at all… anyway i managed to end the lesson on time and i think most of them learned new things during my lesson…

yea, i fucked up my lesson, but i think it was quite good for a first timer like me i’ll be working there for the rest of this week, i hope everything goes well…….

…… and i dun really like one of my colleagues, he always ignore ppl one
