So over the last week, we’ve had the vast majority of the November speaking and writing class drop just that class. Boo hoo. :-( Most of the kids are now enroled in some sort of Korean reading program. Whatever, it’s up to their parents. With only two kids in the class (Maggie and Minnie are the only two) it was decided that it wasn’t feasible (read profitable) to run the class anymore. Maggie and Minnie were combined with the October speaking and writing class. In some ways it’ll be good for all the kids involved. Maggie and Minnie are somewhat more advanced than the kids in the October class, so they’ll raise the bar, so to speak. In addition, Maggie and Minnie will be around kids other than the ones in November class.
So what does that all mean for me? It means I just lost five classes a week. I had been right at 60 classes a week. Now I’m at 55, with is under my contract. That’s not a bad thing. I still get paid for teaching 60. However, there goes the overtime. The way our pay periods run, sometimes you’d end up with an extra day or two that ended up being overtime. Hopefully in February when the new school year starts things will get back to normal. In a way, it’s kind of boring with so much free time at work. It’s nice now because I’m finishing up report cards. But once those are done, there’s not much to do.
So I thought I’d just post my schedule for those of you who actually care, LOL.
On proofreading, I noticed I started all the paragraphs of this entry with “so”. Hmmmm, you’d think I’m an English teacher or something.
