The fact that I have to go to work everyday to face my students is already a daunting task.
Everyday is a new challenge and everyday I wonder, how am I suppose to carry out my lessons in a more fun yet understandable way.
I'm not one who scolds people and people who known me over the years should know I seldom flare up for no reasons. But because of my job, I have to shout and look fierce. But its just doesn't seem to be that way always as only the younger ones will be scared.

To further confirm this, students feed back to me as being : "soft-looking, easy to ride over"
and further comments from teachers within the school ? : " boring. "
i did not get this off mouth but from words. and its easy to find things pointing to you.

well, to have such comments surely give me pain as I value peoples feedback and comments. From there, I try to change and learn; but teaching? its takes experience and better training. Somethings are born to be and some are not. Well, teaching is one I guess for me.

I think that schools nowadays are cramming students with too much extra classes after school and the fact they neglect that interest are not build over a day and things like robotics is definitely not one thing that people will like straight away. I think they should make it an optional one so as those who are interested can learn in a more conducive environment; thus not wasting my time to teach and at least it makes my job easier.

Well tomorrow's my last lesson in that school for robotics and hope that I will only leave with fun memories of students who are willing to listen to me attentively, even for just 1 minutes of my "BORING" lesson.
