Septemeber Rain

The first official week of work has almost passed. This is what I have at the
moment: 6 private students who have paid for this month. That means they will
attend, hopefully. Then, a couple of lessons at a college in their business
studies faculty for evening and distance students. I have also
received my bill for the office, bah. And a couple of cancellations of agreed
timetables, which hints at starting to charge for interviews.

An abundance of teachers have advertised online and I have left a few
comments there asking if they have tax inspection’s permits. That should scare
their adds away, I hope. I have fixed rates and I don’t want to lower them
not even for one Litas, better I’d stay at home in bed.

Now I’m trying to sort out a lesson for the evening group (one a week,
18.00-19.30, 27 people -TWENTY SEVEN!!!-, small classroom) from
Market Leader Intermediate. It’s Unit 7 for Wednesday. I also need
to make copies for their individual reading and activities folder
to be left in the library, but copies are for free for the teachers
there, so all I need to do is to pull together a nice selection on
activities on advertising management.

Lately I’ve been troubled with the idea that I don’t want and it will
really not be possible to teach for a profession for ever, so
I’d need to have another qualification, something that English
would be a plus to. I still need to work for this idea.

So far, so good. Could be better, though.
