Journal Yesterday, I went to my students’ house Oscar and Kathy to teach them as usual. They are adorable, but sometimes they don’t listen to me. I guess they are getting too familiar to me, sometimes they have done something, which have crossed the line. However, I don’t take it seriously, holding any grudges against them because they are still too young, sometimes they say things out without thinking about the consequences. Frankly, the hardest thing to handle well is the classroom management. Both of them are intelligent, but Ben is a bit lazy. It would be even better if he could work harder. Recently, when I asked me to do some tasks or grammar exercises, he said back to me “ I can’t hear you” in a hilarious way. In the beginning, both of them listened to me, following my instruction; but now, they are getting older, having their own opinions and ideas, so I need to communicate with them, figuring out what they want to do next. After teaching for a year and a half, I realise that in general, girls tend to be more obedient than boys and I don’t know the reason behind it. Due to the virus, most employees need to work from home; recently, my students’ parents have been working from home as well. The last time I went there, when Oscar and Kathy’s Dad finished his work, he sat on the sofa playing his phone. In the meantime, he overheard what I was teaching, it was intimidating for me and I got a bit nervous if I said something wrong.
