So I realized that in all my time of blogging, the place where I spend most of my time has been ignored. The school has been consistently wicked, there are always a couple little problems, but compared to most people I talk to, I am in a great situation at Mykiz and feel pretty blessed to be in the situation I'm in. Now if I could only just boot the annoying kids out of the school, I'd be set. haha.

For those of you who keep asking what the heck do you actually do, this is for you...

Basically everyday I start at 1:00 and am off at 7:30, so that's already about as good as it gets, and I teach 6 50 minute classes in that time, each about 3 or 4 kids on average. At the end, I have a half hour to call the kids at home and make them say the alphabet or tell me if they have any brothers or sisters and stuff like that. It's amazing how different it is from class to class, there are many when I would easily teach them for free and everyone has a great time, and some when I am such a hardass I bore myself, but the kids in those classes need some hardass-ness or nothing would happen. It's wicked to watch the kids progress too.

What say we top this off with a little bio of one of the new classes. From left to right is Peter, Clyde, Andrew, Alyson, and Jane, which is the funnest dynamic for a class. Clyde tries to be a bully, but the other kids aren't having it, so it just turns out as pathetically funny, and I think he might be doing it to try to impress Alyson, the little diva of the class. Meanwhile, Andrew is content to just be a nut. And Peter and Jane fill out the background of the class... Peter is the quiet guy with all the answers once you can weasel it out of of him and Jane is the perfect attentive student. It's always a fun time in this class, kind of like an interactive episode of friends...

'til next time
