Having High Expectations

Dear reader,

I have been surprised by my students again and again. Despite being given difficult circuits to set up, a sizable minority of students have been able to impress.

All I had to do was to provide enough opportunities for them to try. Despite the high failure rate, it was still worth it to try. After all, isn't life full of trials and defeats? All we have to do is to continue to try.

Thanks for reading,
Reuben

Use of videos

Dear reader,

I find myself using more and more videos during my everyday lessons.

Use of videos can:
a) animate abstract ideas like ion dissociation
b) entice students to be interested in the lesson
c) be as a reward for continued good behaviour
d) as an activity to distract students while the teacher handles other stuff like checking of scripts.

Hopefully it is a trend I keep.

Regards,
Reuben
