When I was serving, I taught both SS1 A&B and SS2 A&B, I do teach them two different subjects. Some days I teach from 8am till 2pm, the only rest I have is the break period from 11am-11:30
Teaching work is something I'll never do.
Shabi ,you did not write lesson notes?

Leave this kind of job, abeg.
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.
Wow.. I'm leaving honestly. I can't continue any further after spending three years here. This is even the 8th sch I'm teaching. They are all the same .
If u can assist me with something to buy some food I will be glad

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.
stop trying to justify ur ignorance. You failed woefully if u can't construct simple English and yet you went through an English spoken School.

By d way, use ur ignorance to enter White House


Go to adult school and learn.

Take a good look at the gibberish you wrote, yet you're criticizing and trying to correct someone else. Typical hypocritical Nigerian.

[quote author=Allotrope69 post=132639888][/quote]That’s unhealthy.
What I would suggest to help is that you first mark the scores of the class captain male and female. Then you have them mark the scores of each class. So you are only marking 12/14 instead of hundreds.

Be strategic and reserve you energy
Tell each children to bring a red pen to school
Solve the questions and put the answers on board
Tell each student to mark his/ her work with red pen and make corrections with the red pen

After this, assuming you have 10 questions, do a physical assessment of student performance eg students scored 1010 should show by raise of hand, student that sore 9/10 should raise of hand.
You can also be strategic and ask student that got answer to a particular challenging question should show by rais of hand.
Using this strategy you do 3 things at the same time: marking, correction and identifying student understanding of concepts.
The only thing you mark yourself is test and exams
I love teaching maths and I always find a way to better at it and I desist teachers that complain. It's either you go management for pay rise or simply resign.
I don't agree with this method, sir.

Yes, he should be strategic and reserve his energy, but delegating his duties as their teacher to the students is not okay.

His red pen and only his red pen should be seen on the students' book or handbook and there are many good reasons why it should it be done this way.

He should try to reach a compromise with the school management. Mathematics teachers need more idle time for many reasons. The authorities need an Econs teachers. It is as simple as that.

■ Mind you, I'm talking about marking for almost 70 students in a day for just only mathematics. I'm tired because the sch keeps complaining that I don't mark their mathematics workbooks. I'm up to date with Marking notes but workbooks is not same.
Also I don't have a double period in any of these classes that I teach mathematics
6-7 periods and marking 70 papers each day na slave labor you dey do. undecided

I teach mathematics jss1 to 3, physics ss1-3, so I understand everything you are going through in teaching in private schools, most parent will not understand why their wards is not bringing maths assignment everyday, they think it's laziness on the part of the teacher not knowing it's too much of work load, but I thank God just last week Monday I got a new opening and I resumed asap forfeiting my October salary and I called the admin and principal that I have gotten a new place and am gone. So the lord my God that liberated me from teaching in private schools for close 10 yrs will liberate you also before the end of this year in Jesus name Amen. Just have faith and always fast and pray every weekend and see God perform his works on you.

Wow.. thank you so much Sir.

I have passion for the job. It's just that it is not lucrative. I'm an orphan with four siblings to assist plus my widowed mum. That's why I need a better job. But if u can do this, I would gladly accept Sir.

[quote author=Allotrope69 post=132639888][/quote]Look for something else to do.
You must not be a teacher.

If you swallow your pride,market is usually the best place to start from with nothing.
The beginning may be hard and challenging but keep your options wide open.

I don't advice anybody to be a tea her in nigeria.

Teaching private children in nigeria is a disguised unemployment and imprisonment.

You have no say to any maltreatment and you are always wrong before the children, parents and Management. Even some fellow teachers who lack integrity gang up against you, using the children.

Advised never to start it, or quit soonest
