Going cold turkey

*



You know that teacher- training room i've been talking about... in my school.....You don't!!??...well NOW you will...Not only is it.. big and lonely...its super...super cold.....I feel like a cold turkey in a freezer...[getting all hot and "de-frosted" only when I go for my lessons...and then.. boy do i get "hot"...Hot-tempered that is...haaha!!].....btw...there is only two old aircon for that huge room!! How did it get so cold??
I'm now having so much work to do...test papers to mark....



..CA2 in a weeks' time....more observations = more lesson plans = more headaches..Anyway this is a little something i posted on my online forum (NIE)...that might keep teachers out there going strong...Coz teaching is the best career but not the easiest!!

My reply to a frustrated trainee:
hey there Lionel....hang on...don't lose faith in teaching yet...! I feel for you...the anger and frustration..But end the end of the day don't look at the few students who get on your nerves with their misbehaviours...

But instead look at the rest...the quieter ones...the ones who listens to you...the ones who are also just as frustrated at their classmates who cause disruptions in the lessons. The ones who come out to you and ask you to explain somethings they don't understand....because they think you have the answers to everything. The ones who eagerly pay attention during your lesson.... but feels disappointed when you "lose your mood" to teach because of that few students. The ones who will remember what you say.....and remember you...even when you don't teach them anymore..the ones who would come and so hello to you.....The ones whose faces or names you might forget because they are so good and quiet ...you simply "lose" them in your classes...The ones who actually come to school to learn...the ones who will do the your assignments eventhough they might get it wrong....the ones who tries to answer your questions even if they are not sure what you are asking for.....the ones whom we teachers always overlook, cause we are too busy concentrating on the "naughty" ones.....Think of them...and you'll feel all your efforts seem worthwhile....because teaching only will be worthwhile when you see its worth......not otherwise....

I'm such a dreamer aint i???
