My first day in class - it was a cours d'enfants (kid's class). I was overwhelmed by all the tiny tots, demanding attention and talking at the same time! It used to take all my patience and energy to keep them apart, get them to do something with a pedagogic purpose and enjoy at the same time...and I used to be drained and ready to drop at the end of those 2 hours every Saturday.

Far from my first day in class - this time around Niveau 2 (level 2), and a group of adolescents and young adults. I was overwhelmed by all the students demanding attention and talking at the same time! It took all my patience and energy keeping them apart, and getting them to do something with a pedagogic purpose and yet enjoy themselves...and I was drained and ready to drop at the end of the 2 hours this Saturday.
Moral of the Story :
There is not much difference in teaching 10 year olds and 20 year olds!
3 comments:
history repeats itself and how!
Are 10 year olds precocious or 20 year olds underdeveloped?
Our professor, who must be your age, tells me that it's much more difficult handling 20 year olds!
