Teaching 5.

So far so good. My lessons are coming together, and I think I could finally recognise when my students are confused or when the bulb lights up.

For example, when I was teaching my Form 1 how to write an introduction by using the model "Hook, Comments & Background and Thesis Statement", only after doing it together with them do I see their face lights up with joy for understanding my lesson. However, I do realise there were a few of the students who don't really get the idea yet, but I will check back with them in the next class.

I did enter some of my other Form 2s, I think some of them hate me. Maybe because I was a bit stricter with them. Well, to be fair, they did cause some trouble. I know they are feeling a bit tired over all the drills, but I did not ask them to do the drills for my own entertainment. It was all from my mentor. So.. Yeah.. Whenever I felt like I did something to make them hate me (Like being strict and saying so many no's), I would lighten up the situation by making a light joke. Or just making them realise that this is for their own good. Practise, practise and practise.

Can't wait to go home for the holiday even though all we do is just fight. Till then.
