Remember that happiness is a way of travel, not a destination.

— Roy M. Goodman

I started to book flights for the coming of my aunt from Dubai and my December holiday trips. In school this time I pretty much know the routines and how to work with the teachers. I’m more of the one who’s able to engage the students in a conversation as I can pull out small groups and sometimes even one by one, something that I enjoy the most and find myself most productive. I can also check the students’ writings which allows me to identify the area where I need to focus on for each of them.

Being assigned to the higher grade levels, the teachers and I basically prepare them for the PET and KET exam. Handling the correction of the speaking part is an easier task for me to do than discussing the grammar rules behind it. Although there are times when I do have to discuss some topics or respond to the doubts of the students, which I find to be very helpful because I can work on my introvert attitude as well.

I enjoy all the subjects that I was assigned to, especially the Natural Science subject since it makes me a language assistant with background expertise. I always like whatever topics we discuss from knowing how the world works in general to the very biological make up of organisms. When it comes to the Arts subject, I can easily see the creativity of the kids, and I take advantage of that by engaging them in small conversations. As for my History subject, all I can say is that I’m learning a lot as well as in my English subject of course, where I’m most needed in.
