’ ’ oh yes, and then we will go to the classroom’ ’ and so I was given a book, learned that they had been studying animals, fruit, and clothes, and went from there. I have an arsenal of lessons for the Big Kids stored in my brain. but for little ones? I don’t think ive been in an elementary school classroom since I was a helper when I was in junior high. and ive worked with young writers with the redwood writing project, but those kids are there for writing – and I can do modified lesson plans for them. teaching writing is my comfort zone. but teaching a 2 hour oral english class to a bunch of elementary school kids?! why is it that people seem to think that 1) teaching elementary school is easy and 2) if you can teach one level, you can teach any level below that. I tried explaining, again, that it takes time to develop a lesson plan but chinese teachers and chinese schools don’t work that way. I was a teacher, so teach, teacher, teach! dance, monkey, dance! I did fine, but it was only a 20 minute’ ‘sample’’ lesson. I will get paid 100Y an hour. this is pretty standard. some schools will teach foreign teachers 150Y but that’s not as common. I will teach tuesday – sunday from 9 – 11am. here’s what’s neat! (and very chinese): this school has 4 different sites. I will be given the name of the site I am to report to and I will go there by taxi – she wrote down all 4 site addresses in chinese for me. how long it takes to get to each site? who knows! neat! so I guess I’ll just leave early and hope for the best.
