Well, one thing that is very nice about going back to work is the abundance of air conditioning. Last week I was at home most of the time and I think I was running one air conditioner or another for almost 24 hours a day. It is nice to let my company pick up the bill this week. <\/p>\n
I’m enjoying my classes this week. My students are telling me about their holidays and I’m trying to get them speaking as much as possible before I leave them for two weeks to go on my own holiday. <\/p>\n
During this week I am also casually planning my next term with the person in charge of English classes for next term. I’m trying to make sure I have enough time to plan lessons and do a good job for each of my students and also to teach as many classes as possible. Working out that balance is important to my mental health over the term, so I hope we get it right. <\/p>\n
One change next term is that I think I’ll have a chance to teach a business English writing class, which is something I haven’t done for this company yet. I’m really looking forward to making up a curriculum and getting started with some motivated students!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
