omg. today i had like a breakthrough!
my math class was quiet for like one third of the lesson and i managed to actually teach them something. why was this possible? well i sent the noisiest girl and boy out of the class. muahaha. my life would be so much easier if they really were gone out of my class for good. i let the rest do hands on groupwork too which they seem to enjoy. so i might do that more often. to entice them to shut up and do their work. more work to me tho! bah. oh yeah and that girl has since given me another notebook and today, she gave me a note saying i love you and a pen, and made me pinkypromise her that i'll continue to teach them. which makes slightly worried.. i dont even know what i did to deserve her fondness.
oh and i called up parents today! i wonder how they would feel if they knew they were talking to an 18year old.. i spoke in chinese to one. it was not bad! i made sense and communicated. whooo go me! hahaha.
and i honestly feel really stupid when i teach music. i can't sing for nuts. and it's hard to do actions enthusiastically in front of a group of kids staring at your expectantly. thank goodness their enthusiasm makes up for my lack of.
anyway, my voice is like going. i'm quite worried and wondering if it'll last till tomorrow. or even for tuition later. argh. i'm going to stay silent and conserve my voice.
