It has been just nearly a month from now but a lot has happened in my job.
1) Due to my improvements, supervisor has actually appointed me as Teacher in Charge but because of my high MC rate and pass VERY BLUR records,big boss decided to observe me still.
2) Probation extended to 6 months (So Feb then i will be confirmed) cause of MC rate.
Although so, my improvements are being recognised and my senior teacher no longer label me as sotong. One evening when i am having training with my senior teacher and 2 newbies, my senior teacher praised that i really improved a lot and she likes my attitude. She says although i am being reprimanded of my mistakes, i accept it and made an effort to improve. She also say that i am those kind of person that need to SCOLD as only then it will get in my head. I giggled upon hearing that and agreed! She added she need someone with good attitude rather than a good material teacher with bad attitude. Now, my colleagues treat me more differently now as i can be on my own now. Everything is getting better regardless what happened. Job acheievements, you bet!! I got plenty as i have so much to do yet i can handle it well. I am seriously proud of myself! *hahahahha!* And tommorrow will be the year end party organised and prepared by me. Hope everything goes well and the children will enjoy themselves.
As for my tuition, i thought it had ended but actually not! They actually intended to let me teach her as far as i can go as my student likes me a lot. So i don't bear to reject so i agreed. Time to confess to my centre that i am tuitioning......
By the way,someone is back and has been busy meeting up and catching some fun bubbles back in my life. Oh, she is indeed important to us! :P Spent my christmas with my secondary school friends and can you believe it, we were caroling at 4 am!!! Ha Ha Ha!!! And finally get to sleep at 6 am. Spent our night eating and talking and squeezing in the crowd at town.
Lessons will be starting again in Mid January so darlings ahh, if want to meet up with me, faster book me ok. Or else i won't be able to make it again!! :P

I am glad that i will be moving on next year. Not only will i be start having serious montessori teaching, i will also lead a class on my own. Another full time teacher (a competitive and work SMART girl) will be parthnering with me. She is a person who only looks after the child she loves, the rest are transparent to her.This is just an example so please wish me good luck!
By the way, got a compliment from my senior today. She says that i have been improving. I am glad and happy and i hope i can maintain my standard and clear mind!! :P I can say that all the scoldings from the teachers are really worthwhile! I really learn a lot from this job. I have been so NOT ME. I have been much stronger, not a weak individual like last time!
By the way, am going to be very busy at work as i need to prepare for a year end concert i organised and i need to start running my class next year.
JIA YOU!!!

Sounds like a christmas title? But no no, i don't have any christmas mood yet. Just that several things are going to happen this month. First, is my last month of tuitioning Miss Kimberley. She is the sweet going-to-be primary one girl. Although i am drilling her mathematics and english now (frequently driving her close to tears) but she still needs to try much harder. A very playful girl indeed! But nevertheless, i still like her as the way she is. Two more weeks and i will no longer be her teacher anymore.
Secondly is that i will finally be touching on teaching my children Montessori lessons in Jan 06. I am so looking forward to it as i feel very like a nanny now and it is just not enough. I will like to teach too. So i just got the confirmation of my 5 pre-nursery (2 yrs old)children that will be teach by me and by the time they turn Nursery 1 (3 yrs old) next year, i will start to drill them phonics and mathematics. I hope they don't fail me!!And I feel proud when my children are happy around me, the quiet one has turn very vocal now, and the lively one more lively! Hee Hee! You often hear them giggling and i am happy that they are happy hanging with me. Currently constantly reinforcing them to return their materials to the shelf, to push in the chair and to pick the pieces of things drop on the floor. I can really use my NAGGING power in this job as i am constantly teaching them to be polite and disciplining them when they are naughty.
And another achievement today is when all of the teachers and children are out on excursion today and only left me and 3 other children in the centre. A crying boy named Malcom is also present and he is new to the school so he can't seems to stop crying. It has been a week and everyday he cries. Today when i am with him, i try to cool him down but soon he get on my nerves. i decided to IG the child [IG - ignore] and it works!I behave like everything is normal and walk around and call him to play with his friends. Soon, he is quiet and playing on his own. His father see that he is finally not crying and praised him and says that he has a kind teacher (and that is me!!!) Great achievement to me! *SMILE*
Lastly, the exposure of the fact will be out soon. As normal, betrayal happened and as normal, the truth cannot be hide. Let's just hope the girl gets what she deserves while the guy go get a better player. Good girls are for good guys for goodness sake, and good guys hold tempations! :)
