I REALLY AM a school teacher!

Today, the aforementioned group of Korean Students (there are about 20 of them) were entertaining the Kindergarten Kids whilst I was teaching my English Class in a small room nearby. They handed out about 3 metric tons of sweets and chocolates to them and then got them to run and round and scream to incredibly loud and horrible dance music.


We cant' close our classroom door, firstly because it's way way way too hot but also because it lets in the majority of the light which enables my children to see the blackboard and their books. After about half an hour of gritting my teeth I finally had to go out into the melee of over enthusiastically dancing Koreans in matching t-shirts and 50 or so frothing preschoolers on an insane sugar high and demand like a proper English School teacher that they please keep it down as my class couldn't concentrate or indeed hear me.


I also heard myself say "If anyone in the class is unable to be quiet whilst I am talking they can sit at the back on their own for the rest of the lesson"


Good god! I have turned into my maths teacher from 20 years ago!
