just changed my blog profile from "ah ma" back to "huishian". now that i'm back to my non-teaching days and confidentiality's not much of an issue.
whoosh...my internship has ended for only one day and i'm starting to miss everyone and everything there already. a few minutes ago i opened one of the capsules that liyana and leonard gave and it said "prank call me NOW"...should i? in the end i didnt but god...the crazy and not-so-legal days we had in our workroom.
i wasnt sure i made a very BIG impact on most of the students but at least some of them noticed. especially those who were quite quiet in class most of the time. just a simple hand-written 8cm x 8cm note from yuanfai made me want to cry. and throughout the day yi xuan kept asking me where i was and when i'm leaving... no matter how angry the kids make you feel sometimes, at the end of the day you know you'll still love them:)
the feedback that i got from mrs hor: the activity that i planned for the sec four's last lesson was not bad but i didnt have much of the enthusiasm that she expected to see from a young teacher. maybe it's because she didnt know i'm an ah ma too:p
then she asked THE QUESTION that got me stuck: do you want to become a teacher?
my reply was "it's something that i can consider doing". what does my reply mean? is it a yes or no? or did i just answer for the sake of answering?
what's the problem with me? such a great job, great working environment and i like interacting with the kids...and i still quit.
my last dinner-choi!-with fellow teachers. this was what my beef bolognese look like after adding the spices and cheese:)
4c/4D1--the class that i spent mst of my time with:)
this is not what my table looks like most of the time, believe me
1G: most enthusiatic class in asking non-related questions
3E--lots of guys(which means lots of class clowns)
