TDA: Activity 1 “Sample Lesson on TDA”, Handout 3 Just started teaching university students. But more and more I find myself wanting to back in the class teaching elementary age students. I hope I start to enjoy my new students a bit more soon. Kids are much more fun and energetic and, believe it or not, more polite.
Eric --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I prefer to teach adults. I am currently teaching kids and I love them too but I would take an adult class over a kids class if I had a choice. The last job that I was in was excellent and I loved teaching company and uni students. However that meant that I had to prepare more than I would have to for kids but I found that when I went into the elementary school that I am at I had to prepare so much more than I thought I would!
Li Tong Pal --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I prefer to teach preschool, it's really fun to be with the kids...
After teaching them, although it's tiring they can still make you smile/laugh and make you feel tireless with just a hug from them..sweet little kids!so lovely!!!
But now I teach adult most days...Well, i enjoy teaching them
also(so far)... It's a different approach and as for me it's challenging... And you can learn also a lot from them it's a two way process... they learn fro you and you also learn from them...It's fun!!!!
Regards,
