STRANGER...

I had a call from a stranger recently...I received the call around 6.50 in the morning....6.50...K (i didnt get my sleep recently because of sports practice and pre-sports day events. Had to be in the school morning and evening.)

The person referred herself as priya and wanted to know me. I was more interested in sleeping at the moment and replied "huh"...then the same person wanted to be my adopted sister...SISTER... my reply was the same..."huh"... She wanted to know things about me...to which i replied "why?" Apparently...She didnt need reasons for these things.

My reply was "I want to sleep. BYE"

Hectic Life

Life as a teacher has really been hectic. I used to think that teacher’s job is just about teaching. Clearly I was wrong. I have been appointed as classroom teacher. I have to finish a lot tasks as a class teacher. TOV, ETR and other paper works have been my main concern. I do appreciate the time given by the administrators to do these tasks.

By the way, teaching literature has been a tough job for me. I have been using the pictures from “Baby Step” Book to help my teaching. But the students are too used to being fed with information. I do my best to make sure that my students are learning something in the classroom. As for comprehension part, I am teaching the students how to form questions. It is the basic that they should have learned in the primary school. The toughest part is making sure all the 35-39 are doing their work. This is because some students are just refusing to do anything but chit chatting at school.
It is really frustrating because I want to help students who are willing to learn rather than spending time on those who are not interested in learning. HAAAAAAAAAAAAAH…….For now I am being cool about it. Perhaps I should wait until first exam to be over before I know my students real ability.
