aiyoh pinkie... I tell you hor... when I first started teaching hor... I thought i will teach until I lao kok kok... you know?!?! I still love teaching... but I quit hor, because over the last decade ah, the MOE ah... keep on pushing more and more rubbish... in the end, I can't concentrate on my teaching and classroom work... have to think about what silly awards, what paperwork for the sake of paperwork... do things that I feel are so completely outside the realm of true teaching... so I quit lor. I love interacting with kids and all that... it's the admin and politicking and that kind of stuff that I hate.
So now, I SAHM, teach my own ghee-nah... then at the side also take time to do dyslexia intervention for children who fall through the cracks, as well as my own two gheenah who also have dyslexia. Blessing in disguise lah, I tell you.
