I'm trying to mark very quickly but still can't seem to mark fast enough. My brains are clogged up due to day after day of intensity in concentration and speed. I chew fast, type fast, tick (or cross) fast but yet to no avail. I'm giving them work faster than I can mark not because I want to give so much but because those sets of worksheets HAVE to be finished up before the exams. Those aren't even extra worksheets that I prepare for them. Composition after composition too. :*(
However, I'm glad to have good colleagues who are also teaching the same level and who are happy to render help when needed. I guess that's one good thing about this experience I guess.
It's funny how kids tend to absorb the strangest things into their minds. I remember there's a teddy bear named, Snuzzle in one of the big books that we did. We did it like 2 months ago (or more) or something and today when I went through oral practice with them, one of the boys could actually point out a teddy bear lying on the bed as "Snuzzle". The cute part was he said it as a matter of fact. As if "Snuzzle" was a species of bear hahaha... And he wasn't even trying to be cheeky. Probably because it's a really cute name with an interesting- sounding pronunciation to it that led them to have such deep impression of it. Kids...
