haven't blogged for quite some time..busy clearing all the prelims papers that i've received, which literally will stack up to a mountain someday.talk about the good thing first...scored a goal today during pe!!! haha.
ok. now for the lamenting part.
we are supposed to have CONSULTATIONS with the teachers, where students who encounter any problems on whatever subject concerned, will go look for their respective teachers for consultation sessions to clear their doubts.
this was what happened to the previous batch (i presume), and was what was supposed to happen to us.
but it didnt.
instead, the teachers made us stay back for timed practice. the weaker ones are being taken away to have LESSONS with teachers, and the rest are stuck in the hall doing timed prac.
let's quote an e.g.
ytd, its scheduled for those who did not do well for a maths to have their CONSULTATION sessions with the a math teachers. what happened was, 2 grps were called out, and sent to have lessons with mrs chiu n mr peacock, while the rest were stuck in the hall, doing timed prac in the afternoon. those who failed, were threatened with the blue form. yea, the form to quit taking a maths as a subject.
so we were stuck in the hall for 1.hr 15 min. then it was chemistry. or chaos. no one knew where to go, and i ended up wasted time listening to mr lim in the ava ranting on abt electrolysis.
wow. the very purpose of CONSULTATION was defeated by our dearest teachers. it would be much more productive, if we could look for the teacher that we want to, rather than doing timed prac. we can do the papers at home, but we cannot talk to the teachers at home. somehow the teachers don realise that.
so ytd after the whole thing was over at abt 4.30, i spoke to mr tan hs, mrs joseph. both said it wasn't productive, and made SOME changes. but still, the decision still lies on the respective sub teachers. n the chairpersons had to spend 20min of their precious time looking for teachers to try to confirm their plans. n so, for today, my class had to stay for phy timed prac, which lasted for last than an hour.
n tmr, the schedule is not confirmed yet. it will be confirmed on a day-by-day basis. what a waste of time.
somehow, the sch doesn realise that we really don have much time left, and keeps banging us with timed prac n more timed prac. i think some time, if not all, shld be spent revising the core concepts, n doing the TYS rather than doing other sch prelim papers, whose qn are not typical of the O level ones.
well. maybe i shld give feedback tt we will do without the timed prac during marking day, and stay at home n study.
but definitely, i will ask for not having to come to sch the day b4 bio prac. it just doesn't make sense.
k, spent too much time on this entry. have to start work. cya guys.
