Myrrhis:
Why don't you get a few students you trust to assist you with markings?
Students love that.
Pls don't ask me this again. Is it that u can't understand what I'm saying or what?
I told u it is not allowed in the sch. How do you trust students?
Are u going to do it secretly or how? Will the students u trust not still go and leak it?

As a timetable master, you should have mathematics 4 periods in a week. Which means at best a period or two per day.

For Economics, it should be 3 per week at most.

But how are you coping with Mathematics and Economics? Aside the calculations aspects, what else is similar between the two subjects?

Mhen, you're trying oh.
As I write now, I'm famished to death. No hope for food coupled with the intensity of the job. Ulcer again

Op you can use all the periods grin. Tell them you cant do it. My service yr. I took SS1 to 3 physics. Js3 basic tech. I noticed the agric teacher was performing some wonderful blunders in practicals. I opted in to help. The principal was like. You can handle agric as well. After a week I couldn't even teach a single class. Slow down you will just kill yourself by yourself. grin

Look for 3 smart students among your students. During closing time or free periods, ask them to help you to mark. They will gladly assist you. All you need to do is just to to mark corrections
Lol, you sure say you serious?

When I was serving, I teach both SS1 A&B and SS2 A&B, I tech them two different subjects each. Some days I teach from 8am till 2pm, the only rest I have is the break time from 11am-11:30
Teaching work is something I'll never do.
how did u graduate without being able to make a correct sentence ?

[quote author=Allotrope69 post=132639888][/quote]You simply don’t know how to manage your to rest in between those periods. You can do this with a wristwatch.

If you have 45mins to take a class in Maths, In your lesson plan, you must have written out the examples. In class, use 20minutes strictly for teaching and 5 minutes for class exercise solution, the remainder 20 mins should be for you to use a comfortable chair in that class for marking their notes and assignments once they are done writing for that period. This way, work will be easier for you.

Just get used to looking up your wristwatch and you’ll be fine.

But if this doesn’t work, perhaps this is not a job for your type. You deserve better.

Most Nigerian employers are more wicked than the devil, they pay peanut salary and still expect you to die ontop their mumu work.


Oga look for something else to do, you can be your own boss by arranging tutorial classes. That's what one of my neighbours is doing and she's doing fine.......Most students are having challenge with mathematics, you won't have problem attracting these students.

My dear, you should also take into consideration that I only have just 40minutes to teach, give and mark classfun and also write assignment and do Correct on previous assignment.
Remember we have slow learners among them who can't grasp on time, we also have slow writers.

So you don't know you can train students to also be as good or even better than you. I am absolutely serious but it all depends on the kind of school.

I'm tired of anything private schools honestly.
From the pay, I pay my rent. Transport is 2500 weekly x4weeks= 10k.

I feed from there and Help my younger siblings since we don't have parents anymore
How long can you continue like this, bro? I worked in a private school in my NYSC and it was pure hèll for me as a Youth corper talk more of a full time staff.

Please consider learning an online skill. Google "freelance remote jobs options", pick one that interests you, find resources on YouTube to learn it better and start applying for jobs online. In three to four months, you should start getting gigs.

You can devote your weekends to this.

If you ever felt English is what makes someone graduate, then you have a problem.

Some of us just went to school and solve physics till we graduate, as long as u can understand my statement, then it's enough.
Chinese do not speak English, Germany speak deutsh, Portugal speaks their language too.
Former first lady no sabi speak English.

Carry ur over sabi English go enter white house.

Where is the location of the school? 40k is unfathomable.

A lot of people here are giving suggestion and you said the school doesn't allow it. I think you should ignore them. Whenever the management says you should change and do things their way, don't argue with them. Tell them you've heard, that they're correct, and you will change. Then just ignore them and do things your way. Once in a while, you can do things their way to make them think you're listening to them.

But ignoring them is better. You'll gain nothing from arguing with them and trying to change their minds. People are set in their ways. Just carry out action and they will follow along.

This is why I usually laugh at people that think that teaching is easy simply because they are not well paid.

I had to start learning web development during break and after school.

I now earned 400k to 500k per month.
Teaching in a private school is a complete waste of time.
Start learning digital skills of your choice on YouTube.
Re: How Many Periods Should A Mathematics Teacher Have Per Day? by Kaka77(m): 12:35pm On Oct 29, 2024
I currently take maths for Year 9 to 12. Each is 6 periods per week. All is 24 periods per week. But then I have double periods in each class.

Tell the students toexchabge their notes and mark one another's assignment
This is not a good strategy.
It better the student mark it themselves, by so doing they see their misconceptions and error and they can write out the correct answers in their books.
Please note, the objective is not just marking for marking sake, but for student that got it wrong to see where they missed it and become better

[quote author=Allotrope69 post=132639888][/quote]If you will take my advice:
START YOUR OWN SCHOOL....
S. T. A. R. T YOUR OWN S. C. H. O. O. L...
how?
Print a small board carrying the name of your mathematics only lesson... 3-6 each day....
Difficult at the beginning, but please, come back and thank me later

My brother, it is a total and complete waste. A comprehensive one at that. As a young able bodied man, leave private sch job. You keep aging year after year, and before u know it, you are old and without strength to Hussle again. I'm happy for you bro
Pls if u can help, pls help me with something to at least buy coke and bread to eat. I'm teaching on an empty stomach, and even after work, nothing at home to eat

I'm paying a guy that his only job is just to watch over workers at my site 60k monthly, and he's even stealing my materials on top of that.
A graduate shouldn't be getting this kind of pay in a place he's even being overworked.
