Stress

Primary school teachers have one of the most stressful jobs ever - hands down. I can't quite comprehend this, even as I type. I used to think teachers have it easy - short teaching times, short working times and a light workload, after all, it's only marking papers all day. How wrong I was!

Stress - being stressed in a non-academic way is a new experience for me. Usually, it's school that gets me down, and in a panic. Or it's teachers who stress me out. Now I'm on the other end of the spectrum, and actually, to be honest - teaching is really, really, terribly hard.

Aims:

1. Exercise more
2. Mark homework faster
3. Teach the children using more English, instead of Chinese
4. Try some group work
5. Discipline the naughty children more. Scold them if necessary.
