good morning, mrs wong!
last night i was helping baby mark some of his test papers. those with standard answers and i can never mark anything wrong kind. haha! (unlike compositions and letter writing, HEADACHE!)
some of the things his students wrote in the comprehension q&a and cloze passage really tickled my funny bones. i have absolutely no idea where they get their answers from. very interesting answers though.
after i finished marking 2 classes worth of scripts, we went to bed. he then asked me, since i enjoy, in fact, i LOVE marking and things that a teacher does daily, why don't i be one!?
good question. i simply replied him that to be a teacher, one has to have an 'A' level certificate, and what i'll be getting would just be a diploma. then he told me about a good fried-cum-ex-colleague of his, who graduate with a diploma in polytechnic, then went on to a university to get a degree then signed up with NIE. but that was long ago, so he's not sure if much has changed since.
i had thought of going to an institution, to take the 3 year 'A' level course, but it wasn't me! i hate studying. haha. how can a person who hates studying so much be a teacher! actually, come to think of it, i think i can! hahaha.
oh wells, lets just see how things go for me. i'll complete my diploma first, then decide where to go from there. if i'm offered a lucrative job and something that i like! i'll take it! if i don't have, and my grades are good enough, i'll go to a university to continue my studies (how ironic)
if i can be a teacher, then i will be! if i can't.. well, let's just say i have this crazy mind that thinks of all sorts of business that i can setup and venture into with him (yes, he likes my crazy ideas aka day-dreaming) HAHA! now, if only i have the capital and contacts, i'll start right away!
