was just chatting with a friend and she mentioned she has 4 tuition students. I was telling her I only had 1 and I recently gave her up mainly because I needed more time and also because I think I have taught her all she needed to know. In cases like that, I usually am quite unmotivated to go give tuition and if I do, I will feel sleepy. So to avoid feeling guilty for frequently changing the timings because I didn't feel like going and feel bad when I doze off during tuition sessions, I reckon it's better I give her up. I did attempt to ask my colleagues if they wanted to give tuition but most do not because teachers are just too busy.
So... while talking to this friend who's giving tuition to 4 students (8 times a week with weekends burnt), I felt incredibly lazy. Afterall, tuition is a good source of income. Moreover, the student I was giving tuition to is not a difficult student. She learns fast, learns well and she lives just beside my work place.... AND I only see her once a week, an hour and a half each time and I earn $75 bucks at the end of the lesson. ARGH!!! GRRRR! Now I feel extremely lazy.
Well, I told the mum that if she needs, she can call me up for ad hoc lessons. I just can't imagine going there week after week. I suppose this is a case of not dying to my flesh. It's just one and a half hours a week and so near to my home... GRRRRR. Lazy lazy me.
Well, I can always change my mind. But I don't think so. Maybe a break is good. Moreover, the assignments for the Masters course have not come in.
Okay. Random rambling in the midst of nursing my menstrual cramps. Ciaoz.
