recent updates
tuition
Saturday 9 June 2018

I think I blog in spurts. When I am reminded of the fact that I have a blog and that I love writing, the blog posts just come flowing! (haha)

Today I went for a tuition try-out which was supposed to be from 10am - 11am. But who knew that I would end up staying till 6pm?

I mean, it wasn't a bad thing. It's interesting, really.

The method of teaching is really unconventional, and the workbooks are super cool. Despite the centre saying that they are specialised in math, they are actually honing the kids to think critically and honestly, it really tests their IQ lol. It tested mine when I attempted to help the students today - I totally froze and went like wtf in my head, because I was not anticipating such questions to end up in a p2 kid's workbook.

But because of that, I believe that this centre is actually doing something useful for the children! It's not like mindless studying / copying, it's a lot of holistic development for the kids too and I am left thinking, why didn't I have this when I was their age (LOL).

The owners of the centre are really nice too, and I feel like I'm working for something really big. Although the centre is small, it honestly feels like family already and they have big and noble dreams. To help kids with special needs / learning disabilities, to enable them to think more critically and not be so academically focused, to care for the wellbeing of the children as well as the staff and parents.

I think I've found a job for quite a few years.

But... my weekends.
