Time really flies. This is the 2nd week of my 4 weeks assignment. I really treasured those moments that I have spent with all my classes despite scolding them at times for the sake of meeting lesson plans. However, this does not mean that I would rush to meet lesson plans when they do not fathom the key concepts required in the syllabus.
First of all, I found myself fortunate to be able to teach my favourite subject – A Maths in a school at my current age. I feel that I could gain satisfaction from teaching A Maths if I could make students to understand complicated concepts which daunt them at the first sight.
Secondly, I am fortunate to have encountered quite a handful of very pleasant students. Notably, I would like to commend my class chairman – Wen Xuan who has insidiously aided me in various occasions other than meeting his job requirements. This could be exemplified from the fact that he has swiftly contacted me when his classmate has returned back to school in the afternoon who has skipped school in the morning . In addition, I find his utmost seriousness in his studies laudible – all thanks to his clear goals that he has set for himself. 🙂 For instance, he chose to stay in class to revise his work during recess time and he has greatly contact me to proceed promptly to class and start my A Maths lessons 5 mins early since there is no teacher around at that instant. Thus, I really hope that he will do exceptionally well in his O levels if he really holds his perservance in his studies right till the end. In order to eliminate the bias that dissidents may think that I possess, I shall commend about Edmund Bay as he has voluntarily approached me to teach him the lesson that he has missed during his absence in school.
Thirdly, it is indeed my pleasure to have a sweet and fun form class. Inevitably, I regale my personal stories on how I progress for my academic ladder. Thus, I really hope that I could inspire them within my utmost ability.
For the rest of the A Maths classes that I have taught, they are generally alright. For the weaker A Maths class, I have the tendency to scold them more initially due to their noise level. It does not mean that I don’t care for them. In fact, I strive to help them as much as I could by revising their Sec 3 work after school. In fact, I can go the extra mile to help them if they really need since the role of teaching is to touch lives and not to condemn them. Thus, I hope that the students in this class would not think that I do not dote them by giving them charred face all the time. In contrast, I did all this as I care for them since wastage of academic time will not do them any justice if I do not scold them.
In short, I hope that I would be able to continue to touch lives in other schools by clinching assignments that allow me to teach Maths immediately after I have completed this assignment. Well, I really hope that I would be given the opportunity to teach A Maths in a school again.
