Educators with PRIDE Unite

[lusciouskiwi]

Not too shabby a day today. Did three observations. The first one, well could have been a lot better, but at least he doesn't get defensive and blame the kids for his teaching inadequacies.

Went on to my Chinese school and the Head of English ROCKED her lesson! Was damn fabulous especially because she had surgery for appendicitis only a few weeks ago. She did a language arts lesson based on the Hare and the Tortoise and what was even lovelier for mepersonally, is that later she said that although this is a lesson she taught last year, she got some additional ideas from me.

Quite nice after being told last week that the teachers haven't learnt anything from me. Quite frankly I think the local educational officer for Primary School English is playing games. A couple of weeks ago she said at a state meeting, WITH my boss in attendance that my teachers find me forceful. Funnily enough she was talking about comments made at the beginning of this year by teachers at one school still (insert adjective of choice) about how they felt last year.
