Tuition

to those that didn't know...

i "worked" as a teacher for two months...

Was kinda cool cause it didn't require A LOT of effort and energy and time and...
But of course the first tuition offer was way cooler as i'll get minimum 400 per month for teaching 5 days in a row for 2 hours each. Which makes it 5bucks per hour? :p NOOO, its 10 bucks per hour XDD

*slaps, stop dreaming, i got fired last minute for that job.Ish.

So, i message my cousin aka the principal of this tuition center, and she generously arranged a small duel class for me to teach maths in chinese and english.

"Giant teaching elf how to count, now i thought giants are dumb"

"phew wit, im gonna grow as tall as this guy one day"

"he's pretending to be serious, 90% of the time they're buggly bugs that keeps bugging you for less homework and more games =.="

its definitely not an easy job to persuade two young lil kids to do maths question every tuition. Will you if it was you? :P

So, this was one of the "tactics"-

I drew "name cards" for them to pin on their exercise file
(p.s. i made the files and punch hole for them too. Nice ho?? haha)

No need to comment, lol. They didn't think its nice =.=''

Other, not so successful attempts-

The big word "jing" means "quiet"

Tata, my pay :P I'll tell you how worth it it was. Firstly, the tuition center is at MJC which i think 9 out of 10 Kuching ppl will consider it far (its not). But than, transport was arranged for me without any charges. Besides that, the principal aka cousin will buy me drinks and lunch and sometimes dinner too. Add them all its already my pay so i was a lil reluctant to accept the salary which was quite "amazing". But of course, who won't accept money if they're given to you right? :P

I even receive an ang pao for "resigning" O.O and it was "too unexpectedly" FAT


Drawings i drew while they do their work and i stare at blank papers. Didn't have much time so don't expect too much.

The superior rights of being a teacher- conteng is absolutely permitted :P
