My Monday night class used to give me a huge headache ever since I started teaching them in the summer but I've learned to accept their misbehavior and learned that no matter how much I yell, reason, or talk to them, they will still be naughty. My Chinese teacher is gone on vacation and so I had a sub. I'm sure the class was quiet when I was gone and someone subbed for me too, but I want to bow down to my sub for tonight.
One of my coworkers who is good at keeping control of the classroom subbed for my class and the class was actually well-behaved and really quiet. Obviously a big part of the reason is because they are afraid of her. They did all the work and even when we played a game they were pretty quiet for the most part. One of my students, Patrick, always gets out of his seat and finally he stayed in his seat mostly because she yelled at him. It was great. I know this is mean but this class NEVER listened to me or my Chinese teacher. They would just yell and be noisy all the time so I'm just really glad that they had to "suffer," get yelled at, and feel a little nervous.
I wish I had the power to have control over them but I guess I'm not intimidating enough. It was just awesome to see them be unhappy for once, I mean it's karma. What goes around, comes around and luckily tonight I got to see it! :)
