UUM - 1st Semester

The 1st semester teaching in UUM.

My 1st experience teaching degree students.

My 1st experience teaching writing course.

My 1st experience teaching weak and passive students.

Set up 3 rules in all the 6 classes.

3R 

- Relax

- Respect

- RESPOND!!!!

I DON'T WANT to TALK to the WALL.

-  Did the thing that some of my friends hate the most; asked the same questions again and again.

- It worked. They responded. With words. *smile

1st Consultation day.

Found out these;

- a student who doesn't know what is "a sentence".

- a student who doesn't even know what are main ideas.

- a students who doesn't even know what is an introduction paragraph, what is a body paragraph.

I thought those are the basics in writing essays.

SHOCKED!!!

What should I do?

It's a challenge!!

Yes, I need to do something.

Improve my teaching style?

Maybe I'm too rigid.

Improve my teaching methods?

Yes, there will be more activities in class.

More tiring days?

What to do. I need to help them

Thank god I deferred my master's degree.

My Master's Degree??

I've been dreaming to have a master's degree since forever..

but when can I get one? 

Wanted to apply for ELS in UKM, but mommy gave me a big NO NO..

why?

 because my brother said I was a PTFT and I cant afford to do a master..ok, i put away that UKM application..

Applied for Applied Linguistics in USM and UUM..received the offers..

moved to a new workplace..

to busy to fit in..

and out of sudden, mommy said I'm going to get married this coming October..

there's too many things going on..

how can I afford to start my master this year..*crying

Deferred the offer from UUM..

and forced to reject the offer form USM as they didnt allow me to defer..

*sad

Berazamlah...

by hook or by crook, 

Aini bt. Ahmad MUST start her masters' degree next year..with or without scholarship..
