Monthly Report

Well I am going to start writing one of these each month at the closure of the month.
Its a Leap year wow go figure an extra day in the year who would've thought.

Life at Yale
Its an adventure everyday and after 9 months I should be getting used to it but I am still not. It is in my opinion that there is not much that is consistent at Yale. My Darling is a wonderful teacher and she is excellent at what she does. I am continuously surprised at her patience and her ability to do well in the classroom day in and day out.
Each day I go there and I feel like I give it my best but truthfully my best has yet to be met because I know I am capable of more. I have seen so many changes take place that its hard for me to adapt to each one.
I have many things to improve on but here are the things that I have learned especially this month.

* I want to become better at what I do. I have language problems with the kids and controlling issues as well. I didnt think I would have Kindgarten to high school aged kids when I first got here. If I had known that I may have reconsidered. Thank God I didn't refuse! Each month I have seen a steady improvement in the amount of time and energy I put forward in my projects.

March I have some personal projects to get me through the work day. I am hoping that I can reach out to the kids more and improve their classes. What does this mean? It will mean I will punish more and as I said weed out the garden

I think I let my garden grow some weeds in the last two weeks I didnt do anything to anyone for awhile. I smiled and nodded when they showed disrespect. It was hard for me to do anything but my boss just blames me and wouldn't do anything anyways.

I have new classes and now I will have to get used to a new set of textbooks. Mr. Jeong may have made some kids leave. I feel a little bad because the kids who leave I always like but then again it makes me job easier.

I want more work I know this. My boss doesnt give me much work except easy things that are truly not important. My place is mainly in the classroom as an overpaid babysitter because I still haven't figure out how to teach.

I know many kids are happy that I will be their teacher but I hope that it will be good too. I am scared to see some newcomers because some of them are truly bad kids who dont belong here at all. They gave me heartache when I first got here.


Febraury has seen a lot of changes in everything. I am going to see a new format, style and work way at Yale. I am going to organize my personal life better and I am going to try to rectify my mistakes.
There are so many things to improve upon.


At work starting on March 3rd I am going to put more energy into the classes. I think I can improve my teaching.


I am struggling with many things in Korea still though. This is a universal problem but I am noticing that people are looking at Where they are going more than How they are getting there. My books that I have been reading lately are about the journey and not so much the destination.


All I can do is try harder and find a possible solution.

At the Closure of this month though I do know what my future goals are and hope I can find someway to find them before its too late.
