Today was my last Sat. of teaching. I bought cookies for two of my classes and I took pictures of each class. I was really surprised that some of my students were sad that I was leaving. I wasn't expecting it and then the students that I thought would care, weren't really that sad about it lol I felt like I was having party day with most of my classes today but oh well.
It got a little sad with my third class of the day since I taught them since day 1 with ABCs and I was their first foreign Kojen teacher. They are all so young and they were pretty sad. They were surprised that today was my last day with them although I did tell them that I would be leaving.
The biggest surprise was my JK class. They are middle schoolers and they don't want to be in class, especially since the class is on a Sat. from 6-7. It's the last hour of the day and I dread it a lot. Anyway 4 of my students wrotes notes saying they really liked me and were sad that I was leaving. One of my other students gave me a gift certificate and the other gave me a pin off his bag. It was really really sweet. The nicest note was one of my students who remembered me from day 1 of when I started teaching. She said I spoke really fast but then she understood everything that I said later on haha
When I was taking a group picture of my young class, I heard the students speak in Chinese of how they wanted to stand by me and was happy they could stand next to me. I was surprised how excited they were to be near me. I felt like a celebrity haha After work my coworker and I went to this awesome night market. I waited in line for about 20 mins for this awesome snack. It's made from taro and basically it's just a fried taro ball..but it's extremely delicious!! It's well-known and I understand why haha Definitely was a great way to end my night!
Pictures are one of my classes decorating the white board with good-byes, my young class that I had since K1 (the beginning class of English), and the yummy fried taro balls.
