Singaporean Teachers Help!?
827751
Teaching as a career is rewarding, In Singapore, it helps that teachers are relatively well paid.\nHow much you are paid depends on your substantive grade and not on your appointment. Each substantive grade has a fixed increment point and a salary cap. If you are not promoted to the next substantive grade after a number of years, your salary may be capped and will stay stagnate until your next promotion or if they adjust the pay scale.\nIf you are a university graduate, you will first be emplaced on GEO 1. Say for instance, the increment point for GEO 1 is $160 and the salary cap is $3400. If your starting pay is $2600, your pay will increase by $160 every year until the sixth year where you will hit the salary cap of $3400. Your salary will stay the same from the seventh year onwards.\nHowever, it is rare that one doesn't get promoted beyond the first GEO 1 grade. Within GEO 1, there are three subgrades GEO 1A1, GEO 1A2 and GEO 1A3, each with its own increment point and salary cap. So unless you really 'cock up', you should be able to survive in Singapore with a relatively good salary.

Well, ur explanation is even more confusing than ur question.\nIf u want 2 teacher-bash, maybe u shd go back 2 YOUR school.\nAs 4 the next 2 answerers, I specifically mentioned, "in my country"\nIs it true that ppl in USA do not know that a world exists beyond east coast & west coast?\n=============================================================\nUr question is very confusing.\nAnyways, i'll like to tell u something.\nIn very youg age, in primary school, A CHILD SHOULD NOT BE FAILING.\nThe problem is either\n- Teacher DOES NOT teach\n- child DOES NOT UNDERSTAND the language of teaching *at all*\n- Mother is illiterate (yes, this is a valid & sadly, a common reason)\n- Child truly has a LEARNING DISORDER\nUnfortunately (In India) we do not have a good support system at all, & niether making the child repeat, nor promoting with grace helps, as in all the above cases, special attention is needed.\nPlz take ur case vey seriously.\nWhich country r u in?

Sainsburys is a good starting point, as they get a lot of customers. But a small ad in the local paper can help, too. Check out tutoring companies as they get a lot of requests for such things. \n\nHere in Torquay there are a lot of language schools. Their main function is to take the kids of wealthy Europeans and teach them English - but if there are language schools in your area get in touch with them (try your Yellow Pages)\n\nTry these web-sites too\n\nwww.talklanguages.net\n/www.fleet-tutors.co.uk\n\nYou could also make a 'myspace' or Yaho 360 site about teaching chinese and have people contact you from that.\nThe more varied your approach the more likely you are to find ways that work.\n\nYou could start with teaching me Mandarin???>>>\n\n                                   ;-)

Search for your teacher's name.  Put it in quotes.\nIt might also be helpful to include the school name in the search.

If you are expecting a phsyics teacher to try and help you, you might want to edit your question and ask the REAL question instead.\n\nExpecting someone to contact you.... to see if you can email them about the help you need...... so they can..........\n\nLife is too short. Way too short. ASK the question you need help with, not asking if someone is prepared to answer a question!!!

Try asking your teacher for a one on one conference. Ask what your teacher's expectation are of you, and let the teacher know your expectation of him/her. Then come to some consensus of how you two are gonna to work together. Because, it is your education.

if the class is new to itself and the sts dont know each other then either do some fun questionnaires or try a throing ball game where you shout out the sts name before throwing it to them to get them all used to each other. if its only you that is new then teacha few ordinary lessons first, dont lose their respect by trying to be too fun at first, let them see that you are a teacher first and then as you get to know then and they you, you can reward them with some fun games.

Check out your local Asian community or Mosque am sure they will be able to put you in touch with someone.  We had one in my daughters primary school, it was brilliant.

I could not find any teachers listed in the local area.  Maybe someone will answer your question directly.  Sorry I couldn't be of more assistance.

Pay attention to the way the teacher poses questions and then adapts the students' answers into follow-up questions. Watch how children respond to questioning as well as which children the teacher focuses on the most and least. How does the teacher's attention affect students not actively involved in the exhange? (i.e. does in encourage or discourage others from attempting to get involved?)\n\nLook at the way each area of the room is set up and determine how language instruction has been integrated. Also, ask yourself how the teacher integrates language (vocabulary building, grammar and usage) into other subject lessons.\n\nI'd have to know the grade level to be more specific. Hope this helps a little.

I am a pre-school teacher and my advice to you is to have lots and lots of Patience. Try to remember that they are just children and take it from me it is hard  to do that at times(bless their little hearts)! Stay on their level and make their learning experience fun, fun, fun! Most of all, love them and remember they look up to you.

most important thing ... turn everything in ON TIME\n\nsecond most important thing ... figure out your teachers and what they want\n\nthird ... study smart by using your notes and make sure your notes are organized, focus on what you know your teachers are going to ask\n\nthis is also a biggie ... ask for help ... it's what teachers are there for  :-)  We tend to look favorably upon students who aren't too embarrassed to talk to us

For which topic and which year group? If you provide more info I can probably help you ...\n\nI presume from your question that you are a student on teaching practice - a common mistake at this stage (we all did it so don't worry!) is that you are trying to think of an activity first, then the learning objective - it needs to be done the other way round! look on the medium term planning to find out which topic/learning intention you want to deliver, then you can find a fun activity to match this. Hope this is helpful!
