It was very adorable of them to ask me why do i have to leave and crack jokes with me.
When i was just thinking of what to do for today, i received a call from my boss in the morning. She asked me to return to work for one last day because there were a few new teachers coming in today & they needed guidance. So, i went back with all of them being very surprised to see me. Many of them was very happy to see me, which made me elated too.
I had the easiest day at work today because i merely passed on my duties and taught the new teachers on what to do & what to take note of. I was with my P4s today again, but i let the new teacher be in charge while i just sat around in the classroom... supervising. hahaha, i felt so honored to be able to do that la. I had the most cooperative class today with the big P4 class.
The kids asked me for my FB & e-mail, gave them and i promised to reply their emails promptly if they ever email me. Some of them asked me when am i returning again, and i told them i have ended work there already but i'll visit them as and when i can. Some asked if i am going back on every Monday since today's Monday. hahahahahah.
Each of them are good in nature although some are really rebellious & i'm glad that i talked to the most notorious student in the student care, he had some changes in him today when i saw him. He actually greeted me & listened to me. They are my first group of students & i guess it'll be hard to forget them, i wished i could stay longer with them but i needed my long break before my perm job commences.
i'm quite worried for the students though because i sensed that some of the new teachers have got no passion in this job, at least from what i noticed with the teacher who is taking over me. i really hope the best for them and hope that she can adapt to the environment soon especially with the kids.
i enjoyed my 4 months stay with this student care centre, and it is the first job that i hated to leave and loved. at least this job have left me with an answer to my question of whether i'm suitable for the education industry. After working 4 months with the kids, i'm quite confident that i'll adapt to teaching soon. Although the challenges faced as a teacher in a govt school and in a student care may be very different, but at least i had a taste of what it's gonna be like with the students & the academic sllyabus.
JIAYOU LE.
