In this week I feel like a junir high school student, how not, I have to study some subject of junior high school in order to give extra class for a student. I think it is a challenge where I have had forgot most of the subjects... One thing surprised when I know the subjects, they are all the subject was given to me when I was in senior high school. It means all the subject for senior high school is given to junior high school. Maybe it is an acceleration for student to understand of knowledge. I don't know exactly...

That's good. Good for you to be able to get the tutor job, and to relearn something. I understand how you are feeling. I am preparing lessons for grade 1 (for my son). Though the lessons are simple, I got some new concepts and teaching methods which are different from how I was taught, and I am learning a lot of new things too. It's always good to relearn something and we might have different insights as well. I have always heard from my friends nowadays the syllabus are more difficult than our time.

@srisahara I have been hearing that from my friends as well, but as my children do not go to public school, so I can't really confirm with that. I think it happens, as children nowadays go to nursery or preschool much earlier than our days. Some 3-year-old kids already learn to read and write. I know there's one thing the students now have to study which we didn't - computer subject.

Yes, you are right, there are many different things I found when I study the lessons. I found that junior high school get lessons where they are the same with senior high school lessons in my era. It means, student get acceleration in knowledge, now. Maybe I never know if I do not give an extra class for junior high school. It is my new experience. What do you think? Is knowledge for student also get acceleration in your country?

Yes, thank you. I enjoy the job. Unfortunately, I do not have much time to teach many students, whereas there are two students who want I teach them. Yes, my little daughter still need my attention, she is 2 years old, now. I hope one day I can teach many students...

@srisahara Enjoy being with little daughter. She will grow up very quickly and it will seem no time at all until you will be able to take on more students.
