If it's a pilot job & mistakes or flops occurred mid air , will aeroplane comprises and pamper u, or if it's practical electrical & you forgot & touch 1000volts will your supervisor ask the students to applause your dead body? any way I congratulate u it's an inconsequential teaching job.Poor boy. Pilots are usually two, probably with a 2nd pilot who is an expert. Besides before even being tested u must have filed up to an acceptable hours in your training and after training 1 Like |

Woah.
It seems I'm living up to my name , "OlodoGraduate".
So, I dropped an application in a school about 2 weeks ago. I got called yesterday to come for interview. I was given a written test. I believe I did good in the test. Then, I was asked to come for a microteaching today.
I was given the topics to prepare for - in Mathematics; bearing and in Physics; Electricity.
I got home and didn't work towards crosschecking my mastery of these topics as I made my self believe that I would get no glitches in teaching these topics and I also got this crazy headache. I just took drugs and slept all along.
Today came, I quickly came up with a lesson note and proceeded to the school....
Since the school is on holiday, the SSS 2 and SSS 3 were together for lessons. I was asked to teach Bearings first. I began quite good and after a while, I was given a question to solve with the students.
It was a past WAEC question on calculation in Bearings. I was able to make out the diagram, but then I knew outrightly that something was wrong..
I knew what was wrong but I was unable to rectify it. I was just there in the front, blanking out of options....
Thankfully, I was put through by my supervisors {in fact, I really appreciate them} in a polite way and one of them even asked to students to applaud me.
I managed to appeal to the students and explained that "such happens at times".
The supervisor also tried to buttress my point by sighting an example of a case where examiners with over 30 years of experience couldn't solve a certain question — probably not to let me feel hopeless. I wanted to hold on to that as a panacea, but then I snapped out of it "shame on me". When I tell you to read for school you refused and cheated from year 1 to final year. See yourself now. Me when nor go school fit answer the questions self.  1 Like |

I graduated 6yrs ago but wake me anytime to teach any of the courses (computer related ones o) I did in school and I will trash it confidently.
Funny enough, I didn't read much back then in school and didn't graduate with a first class but my experience with buying and selling laptops in ikeja computer just makes things easier for me.
I quickly remember those things I did in school both practical I was never taught and the theories |

Me, I was saved by a tread. I was teaching singular and plural nouns and as I got to mouse I suddenly became confused. The class became unusually quiet and as I was about to say mouses one innocent girl just sprang up and yanked mice. You need to see the prayer I offered in my mind. 4 Likes |

Thank God. The subject I teach is not something most schools understand or know much about. So whenever I'm called for micro-teachings like that, I'm not shaky because even if I "tabon", no body will notice. .
Sometimes I confuse them with my British accent that they give up looking for faults. Lol..

My advice for you is to never allow anything to make you near that school again in the nearest future. This is because the students will continue to remember that nonsense jonsing guy wey say im sabi to teach Physics and Mathematics meanwhile the guy na typical Olodo. And they will talk about this your fuck_ up for a very long time to come. I still dey remember all those of our teachers wey no sabi anything upon say e don pass 13 years wey dey been teach me. |

With the Physics too, I did quite well, but can you imagine: stupid me forgetting what a potentiometer is used for and I was even confusing the total emf of cells in a series with the total the emf of cells in parallel!
I could only think of the reasons for my lapses to myself but not tell to my supervisors to justify myself. At least, I was informed of the topics to prepare for..
Or is it anybody's fault that the last time I opened a Physics textbook or manual was sometimes last year or that I was unable to prepare for the tests.. lol
Well, they were really understanding (they did not condemn my mistakes) and still considered me for employment...
In summary, even if you're confident about something, there's no harm in double checking. No one is perfect!!...

This isn't good advice You're not a real niggar Real niggars take a jumbo sized Mali kush every morning before the start of their day And do you know why?? The smoke from the Mali kush ignites your brain cells which in turn balances the catabolic & anabolic activities thus achieving a metabolic state of the brain.

Op just today I encountered same predicament as yours, although mine is not my fault, I am a corper that left Delta my initial deployed state to Lagos my residential state hoping for greener pasture of better PPA but with all the search of one na teaching I later see, to got the long story short, I am a sociology and anthropology student teaching English from jss1 to Ss3. Six classes on a row you can imagine how hectic and hardworking I had to be
Today I went to ss2 class and I faced the embarrassment of my life, those girls showed me pepper, I managed to transcribe some few English words I familiarise myself with before going to there class as example, na so one idiot among them pleaded I transcribe one long word for them in front of all the class I wanted to ignore her but she was too loud, I felt embarrass my hands were shaken I couldn't do it I quickly bring out my phone for dictionary although I covered part of my shame but they knew I didn't know it.
I am still dealing with the embarrassment till now, and I have lost my confidence going to that class again 3 Likes |

Circle Geometry is tough but more easier for those who studied Further Mathematics.
I perfected Bearings & Distances, Latitude & Longitude whilst I was serving upon all my "Chike Obi" in Mathematics.  I am good at some part of further math and I dislike some topics. Most of my mts courses in the university, I had A's. |
