Sushrut

I have been enjoying this teaching thing more than I thought I would and before I can imagine, its about to be over now. I have some 4 days left of which I assume that last day would be the final test so as such I have 3 days now.

I could see the kids get emotional at times, getting a little friendly to me, a lot more friendly to each other. I saw unusual things like Eina talking out loud, Lisette getting her face up and talk, Cindy and Jose solve some tricky problems and also Francisco making a lot of improvement. Its all good!

I always write about people who struggle and people who make into my bad books. But I fail to write about people who come out of it. Jenny and Kim are kinda still in the RED but I admire the spirit shown by Francisco to overcome the problems he has, and also a bit Heather for trying and doing well in the test.

Offcourse, for me Cindy and Lisette remain the best pupils in my little class. I am really impressed with the knowledge and understanding they have. And to have this knowledge and ability to solve numerous sums one after the other, tirelessly like a computer, and then to write them with equal spacing and same handwriting, like a laser printer, I salute LISETTE.

Obviously I will miss them, after all they did give me a lot! They did instill in me, some confidence that I can teach math to all sorts of people and have the fighting spirit in me. Not just to teach, but to teach to every type of students.

I fail to be on terms with Kim and Jenny these days, and even after considering its majority of their failure and/or problem, I still feel that I am giving up half way due to time constraint. I could have done better had I not been preoccupied with my research and prelims. Since about week 4, my strategy to them has been ignore, smile and go ahead knowing that they are not 'there'. Anyway, its not possible to keep everyone happy and be happy too.
