6th Aug! :DD
Everyone there from 4-6pm! :DD
missed the previous trip on the 30th cause i was training for the Guides Pioneering test (I passed!! :DD)
At first when i got there, An was away at percussion! D:
so i taught LeHa instead.
I was devastated!! nah just kidding :DD
in the start of the year, before SL began, i taught LeHa. He was really hard to handle, he refuses to concentrate, keeps asking you to buy stuff for him, simply ignores you if he ain't interested.
but he needed help and i was available, so i took him on anyway. and ah.. he has become better since the start of the year. He listened a little attentively, was able to do some questions. Then his attention wandered, but using coloured markers was effective in grabbing his interest in doing the questions. only problem was, he kept arguing with me over the markers he should use, and why the lady in the question had to give away her cupcakes -.-
with the markers we managed to do about 6 questions in one hour.. pretty okay :DD
and then An came out!
He was super enthusiastic and even gave me a warning before plopping down his book beside me "jiejie, you surely will have sorethroat when you finish teaching me! i got alot and alot of questions to ask you! *flips pages*"
haha so cute! in the end we managed to finish about 4 pages, not bad too :DD
several points to note:
When An doesnt know how to read a person's name in the question, like "Timothy has balhbalhablabh", i'ld tell him to just call the person "T", 'cause i feel the name isnt important, and "T" is all you need to draw a model.
but the teacher there felt that learning how to pronounce english words were important (it can also help him in English). So i taught him Timothy - Tea-Mole-Thea
and i also told him something that MrGan told me:
whenever you dont know a value, just show it out, but leave the details blank first!
pretty effective when it comes to drawing models, cause An hesitates to draw a model when he doesn't know the value. (like the current me haha)
--
today we also asked the teachers to do the survey, because from what i was told, the teachers didnt allow themselves to do the survey last week, saying that we needed to clear it with their heads (Faith jiejie and Auntie Yewhwa) first.
Very valid point, so they asked Faith jiejie, who said that they can only grade when they were sitting beside us, so the survey was pushed back to today.
but when we gave the surveys out today, the teachers informed us that they had a meeting a few days ago, and that Auntie Yewhwa wanted to take a look at the surveys before we distributed them.. and i felt immensely guilty..
the whole survey could have been done better.. i didnt think of it then, but it was kinda rude of us not to clear with them the survey, particularly the principal, auntie yewhwa..
made us look bad.. sorry jellies >.<
i'll try and think before i do stuff next time @.@
