Today was the worst day, I felt like tired, bored, hungry, sleepy everything happened to me today. I was confused in the classes all the classes were the same, I was confused I did not understand anything but in spite those problems I worked with them, I helped them. I´m like sad because is my last week with Ms MeGee I really like to be in her class she´s a good teacher, and know how to treat the most undisciplinated guys, I would like to spend all my service with her.

Today I had a good day I worked with my activities I really felt happy, comfortable, satisfied, and was an excellent day, today with my group of 9th we worked really good, today i ask for a helper I was surprising when the majority of the class raised the hand I felt surprising about that, but I choose the famous Miguel they guy who named me “chacha”, I asked him to passed the worksheets and after that I had read the instructions, something happened with Miguel I noted I his face happiness of that someone take him into account when I  seen that face I felt better is what he needs ATTENTION if one day I thought ignore him it is impossible at least I can´t, with him.  With my other groups worked very well in a few words was an excellent day.

Today I had an excellent day, I woke up with a better mood, I was helping in English class, I felt better than other days I supposed is because I changed my schedule, but I had a detail with a guy . is the typical guy that you can´t let him alone in the English class he was working very well, so I arrived and scratched his head and he told me
St. miss porque me agarra la cabeza .pos no soy perro
And uncociously I said,
MsRios. But you behave like that.
After I said that I I thought what did I said? But I never felt bad or with regret. And he was insistent with the titular of the class at the last the Miss turn to see him and the students said what happened and the teacher told him...
Miss. I don’t really think that she called you in that way, and if she did, she did because dog follows instructions, and you are a good boy that why she told you that.
I that moment I felt relieved, at the end of the class I told to the Miss that wasn´t my intention to do that, I really felt bad about Miguel, and sadly she told me that this guy keep all the negative things that people said. I feel the necessity to talk with him, I want to know more about this guy, about their feelings at school, I heard some comments about him like “que feo estas cabron .. me das miedo” so I think that those kind of comments affect him. Especially this day this group was undisciplinated. TODAY THEY WERE SO RUDENESS WITH THE TEACHER. Sometimes I feel shame for the teachers, of having those kind of students. In my own opinion all of them need a punishment.

Today I woke up with bad news, for today I don´t have nothing to say I just spent 2 classes in the college, but in these 2 hours I was the most comfortable than other day, I felt wow… but I must confess that I felt nervous about some new groups :S, I had prepared some activities for them (all the groups). I love my new schedule I’m working with 2 of the best in that school. I expect to learn a lot of both.

Today I spent all the morning in debates, but I was interesting, they were practicing for CADMUN, as I mentioned, not all of them have a good behavior, but the detail is  that they know with who they should be unrespectful, and it is sad. I´m still thinking that some of them need special attention. But specially in this day I was observing the different debates, and some that I noted is that when I told to a teacher that I will working with the English teachers she got mad, but I’m sorry I prefer spend my time learning of experienced people, than being with passive people. THANK GOD IS FRIDAY

I was working perfectly with the guys until 9th grade was present in World History I arrived 2 minutes late to the class and one of the guys said “ya llego la chacha” so I turned to saw him and he was surprising in watching me he never thought that I would listen him, and he laugh, so I went with him and I said him
 MsRios “is the last time that I listen that you call me in that way
Miguel. Pero usted sabe que no lo es
MsRios i know, but if you want that I respect you have to respect me, ok
Miguel. ok ms disculpeme.
But he never spoke in English, then in the English class with the same group, the teacher was talking with one guy, but she leave some books in the desk, so I started to passed the books to the st, and they started
Ss. No se deje miss …. No se dejeee... la miss bien agusto platicando allá afuera y usted haciendo el trabajo que le corresponde a ella.
MsRios if I’m passings the books it´s because I want do it not because she ask me to do it .
Ss. Ayy siii muy acomedida .. Y minimo le están pagando para que haga el trabajo de la miss.
I preferred be quiet but every day that I spent I that School I feel so disappointed. The teachers do not have a lesson plan, at least it seems. Some of them are not teachers. Today I was talking with Geography´s teacher she was telling me that they can´t say nothing to them just for the reason that they are paying, the only thing that told her that we as a teacher we must to respect us, first. Because I see that she let the students shout her. So I feel a lot of shame for her.

He is the famous Miguel

I have to be honest, I wished would not Sunday end …….. I started to think in 9th grade ……… but was a relaxing day I read in all the groups. Nothing special today. But im still thinking that some of the guys need attention of their parents, I cannot feel comfortable with one group I feel that they steal my energy.

Today was awful students were worse than other days I wanted to believe that it was Friday but   specially with 8th grade one of the girls was playing one of the boys really I was impressed that the teacher did anything, after 10 minutes she got angry and shout her and threatened that would lead her to the principal´s office, that was the only way she was quiet. This Friday was my first day with 11th and 10th grades because the Ms was absent so I had to give the class, fortunately one group had test, in the other they responded to the activities, both groups were respectful with me, perhaps I felt nervous but passing the time disappeared.

Today I applied an activity for 7th grade in geography class after their test, I love this group I supposed is because they are younger I was happy with my activity even with them. I don’t have any good words for 9th it’s hard to work with them. With high school I was working in one activity they were responding pretty well.  Totally comfortable. I’m knowing more about my students.

One more day… today almost I did not do anything was exams day. I was working with the 9th grade guys (poor of me :S )really I haven’t seen guys so rude, they don’t have respect for anybody so I decided to apply the most difficult activities, I asked them a description of 200 words in ten minutes and surprisingly they did it. But really all my respect to the teachers who have to handle with them. The interesting is when we have to go with the high school guys … I spent all this time reading… In fact today I met new group 12th, they are nice guys, and we started the week watching an interesting movie named F11.

Thank God is Friday, my very morning groups were working in their activities, but I was thinking why do they don’t speak in English? It supposed that the majority of them study there since kindergarten I made a comment to a student about why they did not speak in English and the answer was because they aren’t exigent with us. What can I say? Nothing and I repeat POOR TEACHERS. Those guys are so rude with their teachers, but students do have fault, teachers have a part of fault about student’s behavior.

My second day Mr. sharp introduce me to the teachers and students telling them that I will be working with them, helping to their teacher, that I will be able to apply activities for them, the case was work with them, but when I arrived to Geography class, ¡OH MY GOD! I heard and I can’t believe it the students are special case, they don’t have respect for anybody, they scream, sing, and play with their macbooks. I almost forgot, one of the teachers told of why I don’t have just English classes instead Physics, Biology, because in English class they are learning in how to create a portfolio, researches, projects and all those stuffs, I never felt scared with this kind of classes, because I can read, I can study about those subjects, but the Miss felt scared, nervous and all this kind of feelings because she never feel comfortable with her English, with her pronunciation (awful… by the way). In some classes I noted that teacher wanted to do things that supposed she or he should made at the beginning of the course, like set the rule of SPEAK IN ENGLISH PLEASE and what do the students say? WHY TEACHER IF YOU NEVER SPEAK US IN ENGLISH. Poor teachers.

My first day at the American School, I do not know if say that I was lucky because almost all my groups were in exam, but I can realize about their behavior. In Geography´s  the teacher told me “make your activity for this class and when you see that your teachers are arriving to the class you stand up and give apply the activity, if not you relax” so I responded her she is not going to notice me the day, she is going to arrive surprisingly.

 Today I went to the American School to meet the teachers, was a meeting I do not have to much to say about that day, well obviously I felt nervous because I did not  know what kind of students are they, I felt excited. There were a lot of feelings; I have to give class to junior high and high school. In that moment I felt... Like what?.
