Standard one kids are always the most difficult to handle on the first day of school/tuition.
Today I was helping my mum settle her students down when a little girl looked at me, as if about to cry. This is what she said:
I don’t know how to use a ruler to draw a straight line.
yesterday, my student asked me:老师, 为什么9-4=5?
i stared at her..i was speechless…
lol… dunno how to draw a straight line, eh? i wonder if i said that before, haha… then wat did u do??
hey im writing this not because i pity you but i just want you to know that i respect you for your decision. it was an immensely brave and courageous act. you probably do not know me but you will always remain the jasmine yow that i used to think highly of in my 6 years of primary school life.
take care
jenwin: haha, you arr, i think u surely laugh at her one
yi cheng: just draw for her and terus go out and laugh until i died.
evelyn: i think i know who you are. you were in Hwa Chong for a while. Eugene’s friend right. thanks.

Kids are difficult to handle, that’s part of the challenge of teaching. Haha, glad you are having fun and plenty of laughing. Teaching shouldn’t be stressful.
