Stern.

I don’t think I did well in the afternoon today. Oh well, I guess maybe that should put me in a better frame of mind to continue with my job right now.

I gave my class a stern telling off today because they absolutely messed their test up. I wouldn’t have been so disappointed with them had they be careless about their answers, but I was really seething about their attitude towards the test itself. I have already tried making the test as easy as possible, but I was really unhappy about them giving me horrible answers that defied all possible logic. As such, the class today was kinda solemn (which to be honest I also didn’t feel too comfortable about). I think my stern look scared the kids a bit, because they were really quiet and didn’t try to be funny like they always do. That said, I think they understood why I was disappointed with them, so I hope that would be the last time I should pull such a stern face on them. On a lighter note, seeing that the kids were paying attention to me (at least for) today did make me feel much better.

Hope everything is going to be better in the future weeks!
