Kid Gloves

I unfortunately think I lost my kid gloves along time ago. Today was unfortunately not a very good day at work. I had 6 classes, a wasted break, and before work was unfortunately not fun as well. So much for a Friday.


I think I ruined it though because I can't control my feelings sometimes. I think I also needed more sleep too.

Anyways I am happy that the day did get better.

I was drained for all of my classes but managed to fight through them and get out a live.

I saw my good students and wish I could have talked to them more. The kids were so so with me today. I am tired of fighting and yelling though. I let a few students have it though.

I don't care about their English Ability or their homework being done or not. I want them to try to talk to me and listen to me. I want to help them but only if they help me. I am done fighting them. If they anger me then they can get more homework and hopefully a ticket out of here.


I don't mean that negatively but I don't like the private school mentality which is you don't have to try unless you really want to or need to. Its a waste of teaching talent. I think through no ones fault this place is wasting our talent. christina especially is a gifted teacher and I hate seeing bad kids walk over her. They can walk on me because I don't care anymore but when it comes to her I will attack like a mother bear..

I worry the most in Korea I know this. I care so much thats why. ABOUT EVERYTHING

I will fight more.


The kid gloves are off though they are all students and will be treated the same. I do have a special spot though for some like Lisa, Jane, Ann, Chansuk, Dana, etc.

I hope that this weekend is going to be exciting!

more soon
