Hello, my dear Mylotters. I missed you guys. I have been not around these days. I am so busy working online almost 24/7 work. I have 320 students this semester . I almost do not have time for myself. I keep o sitting and checking outputs that are submitted at intervals. How I disliked online classes. It is so laborious and tiring. At 7 in the evening, I already feel sleepy. This day, Sunday, I administered prelim special exam. Then not all took the test. It is so distressing attitude. I like to oppose the mandate to be a resilient teacher. The school should also order students to follow strict rules . Students don't follow House Rules. They even messaged me at 10 in the evening, sometimes I restrict them, and mute them. I want a free life. Thank you guy for reading. Sharing is caring.

It's really exhausting if your job requires you to talk for hours. It's probably best to put your phone on silent when it's already non-working hours. But if I were in your shoes, I'd pester them for updates so frequently that they would have to mute me instead.

Simply grade them based on their performance. You're clearly doing your best so it's not your fault if they get a failing grade. People rarely learn their lesson, especially teenagers, without consequences.

@MGjhaud they are stupid young people invisible and I cannot see their face. They are invisible during virtual classes.

Good to see you, Erly! Wow, you have a lot of students ! Teaching is not easy . . . and teaching online has it's own unique obstacles. Students' attitudes have become so awful . . . it is as if they all ignore the rules and do what they want . I wish for you some relaxation time . . . you are human and need time of good rest too.

@allknowing it's already programmed. How nice to change the sched but it cannot be. The students might be in conflict with their other subjects.

Mostly online work needs too much commitments. It's therefore very tiring and requires one to be hardworking. I suppose you earn so decently that your time and sweat is paid off eventually
