It’s been a while since I last wrote anything about my journey as a teacher. The past few months have been a bit chaotic. Where I live, there have been lots of festivities, and between work, studying, and, of course, going out and enjoying life, I just haven’t had the time to sit down and write properly. But at the beginning of March, something happened that truly filled my heart in every possible... » Continue Reading
Happy Sunday everyone. Today I’m feeling quite reflective and I feel like sharing how life has been going for me lately. Even though the last few weeks have been a bit hectic (some parents wanted to withdraw their kids from the extracurricular classes), I managed to convince three of them to stay and two more children have joined. One student left (he is autistic) because he told his mother that t... » Continue Reading
I honestly haven’t written anything these past few days because life simply hasn’t given me the space to do so. They’ve been really tough days for me in the worst way. I truly didn’t expect all of this to happen, but I’ve always believed that everything happens for a reason. I need to share what I’ve been through these past few days. I need to let it out, to process it properly, and most important... » Continue Reading
Today is one of those days that completely shifts your perspective. Remember the last entry? Well, today is the opposite lol. All the negative thoughts I’d been having lately, the low mood, the lack of motivation, the feeling that my last classes weren’t going well, the stress of thinking I wasn’t doing a good enough job… it’s all just faded away. Today my boss came into my class with me (it was » Continue Reading
Honestly, what I’ve been carrying since February has been pretty rough. As I’ve already mentioned on my blog (even though I’m pretty sure only I will ever read it, LOL), I also teach English extracurricular classes in schools. The thing is, three kids are going to stop coming. The day my boss told me, I felt incredibly guilty and really bad, because I immediately thought they were leavi » Continue Reading
Is it just me, or is anyone else completely losing their mind over the Epstein case and everyone involved behind the scenes (including the president of the United States)? Have you read about the horrific things those degenerates have done? I honestly feel like the world is going to hell for good, and it makes me furious that such strong and disturbing information has come out and yet no one is b... » Continue Reading
I don’t know if this happens to you too, but I absolutely love travelling. Whenever I do, I feel amazing, and I genuinely enjoy learning about other cultures, languages, and people. I think travelling is also a really cool way to discover yourself and to fill yourself with knowledge, memories, and unique experiences. I’ve travelled quite a bit, but I’d » Continue Reading
These past few days I’ve taken them as a time to disconnect. Last weekend, a traditional festival was celebrated in my hometown, and obviously there were loads of activities to enjoy, including partying at night. It’s typical to go up to the mountains to drink, gather branches from the trees, and later light a bonfire in honour of a saint. I didn’t realise how much I n » Continue Reading
Is it better to coax people into doing things by offering rewards or to pressurize them threatening some kind of punishment if they don't do it? That is the question my English teacher wants me to answer. Yes, I’m a teacher myself, but I still need to practise my English too. Since I consider myself part of the educational field in society, I’m going to focus on this area. Refering to the ques » Continue Reading
There’s something I’ve been thinking about for a long time now. Are we really authentic? What does the word authentic even mean? I think it’s when someone truly is themselves, taking into account everything they’ve lived through, but also having self-analyzed and being aware of who they want to be and who they don’t. These thoughts come to me because I » Continue Reading
I’m being pretty annoying, I know, but whatever xd I only have like 8 friends here and I’m pretty sure no one’s even reading this lol. But honestly, this is kind of addictive. I can’t stop writing. I really like it, especially because it helps me let things out. This blog entry isn’t going to be about being a teacher; it’s going to be about me in 2026. I’m at a really weird p » Continue Reading
I swear I don’t understand how some kids can be this badly behaved and rude. Today I had a class with kids between 6 and 10 years old because it’s an extraescolar English class. There are only five of them, but it honestly feels like there are twenty of them. Even so, there are two of them (the oldest ones) who just do NOT listen. Like, I try to explain the activities and they won’t stop talking,... » Continue Reading
