my week14

my 1st sem in dis new institution ended last friday... my feeling: a mixture of both happy, more to relief (25%) n sad (75%)..
m relief coz i wont hav to go through d monotonous timetable n getting up for my 8am class; unfortunately i have T.H.R.E.E 8AM classes next sem which starts in october...

tot of seeing all my students 1 last time but many didnt turn up, thanks to d bar list which was revealed in week 11 > dis is 1 foolish step taken, cant they c it encourages students to skip classes, oni god knows y dis was implemented n i really hope dat i'll c d rationale behind dis soon...

anyhow, bk to my final week of d sem, there was ntg unusual, lessons went on n i chatted wif some of them, not a chat more to listening to their complaints...

kinda disappointed when i dun get to c most of my science students, n i wont b invigilating them too, so i guess no goodbye...

was glad to c most of my arts students though some neva turned up... so, as typical malaysians, wat else, pix-taking our fav activity... *tot of having a pic or 2 wif all my classes, but my wish will neva b granted-yes, i m a typical m'sian*

my PR group-indeed a very outspoken bunch...

tradition said, one uncommon pose is a must... so there goes d immature students n i....

grrr, notty boy was molesting my pencil case, once a notty boy, always a notty boy... but i couldnt doubt their friendship bond...

d PR girls...

my another bunch of PR students.... they complemented each other(notty boys + obedient girls)

another group of PR girls who dropped by my office for a short consultation n a shot....

d only psychology class i managed to bid au revoir... with oni 2 or 3 m.i.a, i was pleased....

look at d uniformity-same shirt n same pose... i was indeed a successful tutor as i managed to perform magic on them......

d time spent wif these students were short, only 14 times where each meeting was 1 n a half hour, i somehow can see their distinctiveness/personality; proudly i can c there were more decent students compared to outrageous ones...

anyway, i had lotsa fun teaching English to ppl from different background, no doubt hiccups did occurr every now n den; instead of grumbling over it, i chose to accept/change n improve it..
i do not knw whether or not they learnt/gained anything from me coz 70% of d time was spent on laughing -yes there were lotsa laughter in all my classes-
i guess my students will succeed, though they play kinda hard but they hav d brain, so i'm expecting some future psychologists, PR managers, computer engineers, biochemist, etc...

one thing for sure is, they r some very good ones *in terms of their language proficiency*-d way they write were just so amazing, i dun feel bored reading over n over....

adiosss & best wishes (especially to d ones reading dis)
