1st day @ work....

today finally started on the tuition centre job. overall ok lor. 1st part of the day all the boliao stuff la.. telling me how to update stuff, how to search info, how to file stuff etc etc etc.. then in the evening, they sent me over to the jurong west branch. can take taxi and claim. the idiotic thing is, after i reached jurong west, then tt taxi uncle told me tt his machine cannot print receipt cuz it was down! then i told him to write me a hand-written one and he rejected, saying cannot write, now all use machine to print! diaooo.... how suay lorr! but luckily i still managed to claim w/o receipt. phew.. it was $9.10, inclusive of $2 peak hour charge. lucky still can claim. now then i know jurong so big. from jurong east to jurong west also need $7 worth of journey.. hmm..

then @ jurong west, it was busy. handled 2 clinic sessions. basically is one-to-one short session la.. juz tt they gave it a nice name "clinic session". besides taking the normal tuition lessons, students can also sign up for these clinic sessions to clear doubts. one session abt 30-45 mins... so quite fast. but met this p6 gal. super zai lor. very keen and gun cheong. so eager to learn. v impressed. and erm... one paisay thing.. apparently i could not solve one of the maths questions.. ok.. laugh at me.. but then.. don know lei.. i don knoe y cannot get the ans lor. luckily she agreed with me tt my method's correct and did not insist on getting the ans. phew.. she really zai leh.. i also abit stress.. she looks like tt kind who will doubt and challenge the teachers de lorr.. then another clinic session was with a p4 boy. also quite smart tt kind. after i explained his questions he said he understand liao. but then, after his actual tuition lesson ended, i saw him staying back and asking the teacher questions. wahh.. he doesnt belive my teaching ar?????
*
after the 2 clinic, it was a class tuition. piang.. i wasn't given much instructions lor. and no one to guide. on 1st day gotta handle a class liao. stress.. lucky only 6 students. all sec 1. but then 3 boys really super mischivious lorr.. talk and talk and talk.. and i tot i wont feel nervous when talking to a class of students. but actually i do. for a while la. especially when they giggled and talked softely among themselves.. like sharing some secrets tt kind... wonder if they were making fun of me! boohoo~ but overall it was still quite fun la. nice experience.
*
personally i feel grp tuition really not so effective. it's like.. the time's v limited lor. and i cannot really explain wad i actually can explain becuz of the time constraint. and the attentive students are at an disadvantaged cuz they gotta tolerate the naughty ones. if can afford, really shld opt for private tutoring.

tmr lucky will end at 6pm. still can go shop after tt. hope tmr will be eventful again. :)
