Ni-san

So, there are many special kids here and then there are also some real bastards too. Pardon my french.


My classes are the 4 eldest age groups. LAtely, I am trying to have more fun with them. When I explain lectures I try to make it comical as well. Sometimes my antics gets me into trouble because the kids think I am hilarious and thus are too noisy. So I need to be careful.

In all of my classes I have a favorite or two. Ni-san means brother in Japanese and Adolto in Korean "younger brother" My student Chrono has been referred to as my younger brother. He really likes me because I am funny and nice. I also dont give them much homework because I am still learning the system.


Christina told me that the class doesnt really like him so much because he is a braggart. someone who brags. He doesn't brag in my class but he always tries and when I give an explanation that is too hard for him he always asks me to explain until he understands it. Thus, he is my favorite.


I felt bad because I gave him low scores B's on his report card because he needs to work on his speaking ability but he is getting better.

Its people like "Chrono" his English name that make my job wonderful.


A few more students worth mentioning are Jully and Rose.
Jully and Rose are my star students. They are in TD1 the second highest class possible in my University. They understand English very well and also can read well. I think that they are still too quiet but they always laugh at my stories and enjoy my class. I enjoy teaching them because its just them and me. They are willing to learn and makes my job a lot easier.


I will discuss more students later but these three are my favorites, without a doubt.
