Time flies so fast here its just another day. I wish I had wrote a story each day but its hard to think of an appropriate Title each time.
I am fast approaching a successful completion of 9 months here in Korea. Its going by so fast and yet there feels like I have so much more ground to cover.
In the morning I spend my usual time at Mcdonalds and relaxed before heading to work. Its back to the grindstone and I am expecting 5 full days of busy work. Saturday not so much but still none the less busy as well.
First off, I worked 6 classes in a row. This is hard for me because usually the kids aren't even interested in hearing what I have to say. I am just getting through it as fast as I can in order to survive.
I have a potential new plan with my future endeavors in Korea.I was offered a chance to take on a private. i think I will do it and get some extra dough!
Work Schedule
First hour I was bored I didnt do anything
I counted the number of students in this Academy

MB1-6
MB2-10
MB3-13
MC1-11
MD1-12
MD2-11
MD3-10
TC1-14
TC2-8(7)
TD1-7(6)
TD2-5(3)
Total: 112
I realized today that I didnt send out report cards or hand out syllabus this month. Its really no big deal since most of my class has left me. I am pretty sure that the new TD2 class will all drop within a month. I lost all of the students from my old class. The 5 boys have all dropped and now I am just left with girls. This class has done a complete change and I miss the good days when i had a group of solid kids and not just students to fill the time slot. I personally dont feel very good about the new classes.
Some of the new group are students who originally left months ago when I was in my early teaching days. I think these students are just here for a short time. None of them came on Saturday.
Anyways, Second class
MB3: no problems. I had fun. I played with the kids and they laughed for the most part I had to be serious at the end but it was a good class.
MB1: Its a good class. I am also able to finish this class well.
MC3: The old MB3 Class. Nothing much happened
MC1: Start a new textbook
MD3: This class is alright but it does have some problems a little bit. I think its getting better though!
MD1: Too talkative today but I think its a good class. Once we get out of Open HOuse and into the Reading Advantage books!
After work I went to a Chicken place with my friend Aaron to discuss private teaching. I am going to see how I can swing this into my schedule^^
I am excited for the prospect of tomorrow
