Since I
was a little girl, my mother always tell me to be a teacher. Her
theory about being a teacher is the security and ample time you will
have compare to other professions. Well these days, being an educator
is not as easy as people always
said.
I landed
in Vision College because of my friend, Fahmi. So, here I am 8 months
later. Through this period I have learnt a lot.
First
day at work

I still remember my
first week of teaching, how the students were staring at me and
immediately I doubted myself. That was just scary and believe me, I
can't feel my stomach even my voice was shaky. Since this is my first
teaching experience, my first semester was a bumpy ride. For example,
I forgot which week to hand in the exam papers and SAR.
As for the students,
they come from vary backgrounds and need different approaches in
learning. Most of the time, I need to simplified my lectures and ask
them to repeat the points several times. They
don't have vast schemata that can relates to what I am teaching.
Explaining and teacher-students interaction are very important. For
lazy or uninterested students, my solution is simple. It is either I
threat them with low mark or scare them that they will fail the
subject and end up repeat and pay for it.
