teachers' hitch (es)
First thing first, Anis...I prefer ILDIVO's than that song.
I've been rather busy for the past few days. Although the students are having their exam now (in which we, teachers are supposed to be free from teaching except monitoring the students ---which is pretty bored!), I have to say I could never rest. Now, my nightmare has begun. I'm teaching 5 classes (English) and for each class, approximately I have 40 (naughty) students. For English, we have two papers--paper 1 is easy as it is an objective paper, however when it comes to marked paper2, ......(no word can describe my "enthusiasm"). 40x5---you do the math. Plus, I am also a form teacher where I'm supposed to do the students' record book. Anis, that's why I haven't updated my blog recently.
Marking is a tedious job, however I do manage to entertain myself while marking the papers.
"we put oil in kuali panas"
"we cut onion pakai pisau tajam"
"cut the onions small small"
"he finally bahagia"
yes, I did laugh when I read these interesting pieces!
There a few students who tried their best to write even though they are weak in the language but what bothers me the most is the students who don't even try to answer the questions given.
So, wish me luck for the coming days!
p/s: I had a meeting yesterday, and now besides teaching the students, we, language teachers have to teach our peers too. It is called "Buddy support system". And yes, we do get extra incentive.
