. Friday .

Kids who love reading somehow are cute.
But i don't mean nerd ;P

Happy Friday night? actually every Friday is not that happy for me la, because i have to work as tuition teacher at night. And the kids nowadays is not really easy to handle, not about what and how they're studying but you have to know how to handle their emotions as well. I'm teaching Bahasa Malaysia for Standard one kids *okay i know my B.M is not that good but i can still handle Standard one level. I was not planned to be a B.M tuition teacher initially, but other subjects already have teacher in charge, so no choice, have to teach B.M. The kids i'm teaching are not the smartest one, not the easier to teach one, and is not the very obedient one. So, it has been quite a hard time for me to figure out how to handle each kid. Luckily i just have three students at this moment, or else i can really pengsan.

Student A is a boy that is very very weak in Suku Kata. He can't even read the words in sentence. Therefore, it's very hard for him to understand what's the sentence or paragraph is talking about. And he's not a very patient boy, will get discourage and self-pity that lead to bad attitude towards teacher and friends eventually. His parent is very busy with their work and seldom concern with his school stuffs and homeworks. They don't care even he's failed or not, will just said: Get a better result next time lo.

Student B is a girl that spend most of her time with her aunt, his dad's younger sister. Her mum is a China citizen and seldom get along with her while her dad's busying with work, i guess, because i really seldom hear she talk about her dad. Her aunt is almost like her mum. Concern very much about her. She have some smart within but this girl is quite a hyperactive one, non-stop talking, it's very hard for her to concentrate up for 3 minutes, and her signature thing to do is having careless mistakes here and there throughout the latihan.

Student C is an Indian girl which is quite hardworking. Not much problem with her attitude besides she likes to talk a lot, too. Just abit Kia-su sometimes, actually it's not a bad thing to have if it really helps in making her to get better grade in her studies. But these also made her think that changing the marked answer to the correct one is a reasonable things to do *it's actually not okay to do so. Don't learn ah.

Haih. Really don't know how to improve their studies. Headache every time having tuition class for them la. I prefer teaching art or music, because those are not in the compulsory subjects, it's just for hobbies and interests, not that much of pressure. You know, most pressure comes from parents because they expect you to make their kids improve. Once they can't see any results after 2 months, they will start to complain about your teaching methods, if the results still the same after 3 or 4 months time more, they will change to other tuition centre directly. Sigh.

Hope Cheryl will get smarter abit. So I don't need to send her for tuition :P
