What attracted my attention wasn't how you secured the job but the low salary attached to the job and my question which you ought to have considered before accepting the offer was;
How can 40k sustain one in ph where cost of living and rent are on the high side? During the late Buhari's administration when life was easier compared to the current shege, I rejected an offer of 70k in ph because it could not be able to sustain me. How much more now when the economy has gotten worse.

1. Always dress corporate
2. Give class work and do correction after every class, don't forget to mark.
3. Give assignment after every class mark before next class and do correction at beginning of next class
4.Be firm, don't be too friendly with your students and don't be too harsh
5.prepare before teaching any topic- don't assume you know it.
6.Keep your records up to date- lesson noes, dairy, register etc.
7.Attend classes punctually.
8. Depending on the volume of a topic, don't move to a new topic until you finish the current one. Not necessarily one topic per week. Just ensure you are not wasting time.

Teaching is a noble profession.

When school resume, The principal or VP will provide you with some materials like; Text books, chalk/Maker, and other necessary things including syllabus in accordance to general waec standard, be it Junior or senior.

On your own, you will read alot, meet the class above, and collect notes from some students.

Assignments should be fun..And competitive..If you make it boring , students will find your class unattractive.

My broda, have taught two subjects and even more for 25k.buh today oluwa don pick my calls. Naija no easy ooo just keep pushing.

Trustnone,
As an experienced teacher, the following are expected of you:

1. Report to duty on the day of resumption. Some schools may ask teachers to report on Friday prior to Monday resumption day to prepare their notes.

2. When you get there, ask the principal or headteacher for the scheme of work. The scheme of work contains topics to be taught each week.

3. The school will also give you a lesson note. So you should write the lesson plan for each week based on scheme of work for each week.

4. You go to class and teach depending on the time table.

5. You are expected to issue assignment to students after teaching every topic. Make sure you mark assignments , because students won't take you seriously if you overlook marking them.

6. Issue tests based on the school method of doing it. Some schools set first, second and third tests for students every term. Others may give only one test or two.

7. Jot down your examination questions as you write lesson notes on each topic. This will make it easier for you to provide the questions towards the end of the term.

8. After exams, mark the students' scripts and submit the scores to their form teachers. If you are made a form teacher for any of the classes, your work continues until the time you release termly results to your students.

In conclusion, you have nothing to fear. Be inquisitive when you resume at the school. Ask questions. Every school has its own culture and they will be willing to make sure that you follow their culture.

For me,

1. Trek a lot.
2. Avoid anything that have to do with flexing, alcohol or carbonated drinks is a no no now.
3. The three square meal/balanced diet is a myth now, 1-0-1, 0-1-0, 0-0-1 and 1-0-0. Groceries is now the mainstay, once in a while we dey bust am with protein.
4. Not in a committed relationship for now, LDR cut it for me, I don't want anybody using love as bait to extract money wey no dey from my hand.
5. Freebasics, night plans and *121# is handy, big shout to MTN for that life saving data plans.
6. Once I help my neighbor carry or play with their children, a sumptuous dinner is guaranteed.


At the end, man will be okay.

as per the experience stuff, don't bother yourself just dress up, look nice and head to your new place of work feeling optimistic... They will be the one to administer class for you, give you textbooks, give you the curriculum for the class and other statutory documents... Be prepared and read ahead of the learners... There's nothing much. Giving you all these from experience. Education Officer from Ekiti State reporting... Thumbs up.

Basseybruce:
Good afternoon bros, at first, I congratulate you on your new appointment, secondly, see ehh, some id*ot that don't even make up to half of that amount will come here and want to toy with ur self esteem... Blaa... Blaa.. Bla. Why did you accept such ridiculous offer, don't mind them, this can be a stepping stone for you...

fados4sure:
I have been teaching for the past 10 years now and I must say to you, first impression matters a lot

The students will be looking at your composure the very first time you enter their class

As per assignment, if you are teaching mathematics for example, class work are giving after at least four or five examples on a sub topic

You can get the scheme of work from the ministry of education curriculum which be giving to you by the school


The salary is very poor in PH! I take home 80k in Benin

matm:

5.Passion is the key and not the pay.The is not worth d effort at all

Bfly:
You can't bulid true building on a false foundation

Just keep lying and be doing research to defend it. You won't fail in the short run. Maybe by then you have made enough money to leave or get another job.

AmeLonRo:
Dress well. Video record your daily class teachings/lessons on phone. Start a YouTube channel and post all that you record daily.
Thank me later.

Teach French only, even your proprietor will be more confused than you.

phemmyfour:
Teaching is very easy. Don't be dogmatic, choose your style and make sure your students enjoy the class.

Assessment and assignments depends on the kind of feedback you get in class, time and the length of the syllabus .

Prepare for every class, teach yourself and answer every likely questions before meeting your students. Make your class interactive and support your lesson note with teaching aids.

Emekus92:
Trustnone thank God for nysc I don Get small experience as a school teacher

1st when school resume. U will b provided with the scheme of work for that term. It will contain all the topic to teach. Each week a new topic
10 teaching weeks
1 revision week
2 exam week.

The school should provide u with text book if they have library much better

As for the assignment after 2 weeks or 3 weeks (on Friday)u can give them assignments to submit on Monday. That’s if u have strength to mark their script


Don’t forget u have to give them test every school has their test week. I think test is 2 or 3 times a term.

Ur main problem is lesson plan

Don’t b afraid to ask questions. (I’m new here please tell me how u people do this or that)

qtx:
Not your fault bro. Hunger no sweet for belle. When you resume scout around the school, look for a humble and experienced teacher , make her your friend, but do not expose the fact that you are inexperience. Once in a while ask her some questions stylishly to get some info and act on them. Make sure she is not the type that gossips. get notes from students, learn online also how to prepare lesson notes. Speak less but listen more and learn quickly. Goodluck.

samsegs:
@OP,,u forgot to tell us the subjects ure given to teach,,with that we can give proper advice...

na2016:
Oboy abeg, go and start preparing your lesson notes and start teaching abeg. lol

DesChyko:
Why lie?

Anyways, you are a step above the learners in experience. Leverage on that and key into your experience to drive home your lessons.

Every school has her own different policy. Arrive early, look at their lesson notes. Meet your new learners. Stand on one toe and observe everything that is the school's policy. Unlearn and Relearn everyday. Actually, the best learning is starting from the scratch.
