What happen today?
Hmm.
i'm not feeling well today.
Got asthma, but not too bad.
Still able to handle it alone.
No voice today, sore throat, feel tired.
I enter the class.
Pupils make noise.
Sound like the flies.
Which one i want to hear?
"I'm not feeling well. Can u hear my voice clearly?" I asked.
They say:
"No."
They keep making noise.
Class become uncontrolled.
Then, I talk slowly to them:
"So, you have to keep quite and listen." I said.
They looked at me.
I looked my pupils back.
One by one.
They start to slow down their voice.
"Good!"
I said and i smile.
That's why i love this class.
Another situation.
I go to another class.
"We cannot go to the science's room today. I don't find the key." I told the pupils.
"Arghhh..." They start making noise.
"Please sit down at your place." I said.
The pupils still not moving to their place.
They blame me because i don't bring them to the science room.
They are making noise.
They don't listen to my instruction.
"I say sit down, now!"
I shout until my voice turn like a monster voice.
Sound bad. Sound trouble.
The pupils move to their place.
All of them look at me with round eyes.
They look surprise.
I don't care about my health anymore.
I say:
"You won't listen to others problem. I said.. i try to find the key but i cannot find it.
I don't know who keep the key and forget to put it back!"
I look to the pupils that blame me.
A boy. A very naughty boy.
" You don't respect me as your teacher! This is how you talk to the teacher?!"
The boy looks down the desk.
Other pupils look surprised.
I never shout to them like that.
Inside my heart, i try to calm down myself and say:
"I want implement my lesson today!"
A few minutes after that, i slow down my voice.
"I don't want to talk a lot today. Now, for this activity, please discuss with your group about..bla..bla..bla..
and then talk to me!"
Class turn to normal mode.
They start to give their respond when i asked.
Luckily, they still want to communicate with me until the end of the class.
Reflection:
I never regret for shouting today.
I never regret because i get angry today.
I don't care if they start to hate me after this.
I want they know how to respect and talk to their teacher in a good manner.
That's it.
(Pss: I'm sorry because my English not so good. Hahaa..i still learning. Thank you.)
