Summer school in a flash

{Saturday, June 04, 2005}

Mon: The teacher couldn't really control the students very well. At times, the class were noisy and she had to resort to raising her voice at the girls. Jazz was a disaster as she didn't breakdown the steps for the poor little girls.

Tues: The standard of the girls this year is generally not to strong. Maybe its because its level 1 and they are doign quite difficult stuff. I'm surprised to hear from a fellow teacher that some of the girls had joined the same level last year. Think the teacher is quite frustrated with the girls by the end of 2 days. Choreography of the performance dance was slow.

Wed: "Is 2 mins enough?" The teacher asked Mrs T. "They couldn't do anything else." She added. Mrs T just laughed at the comment. The usual noisy little girls shut their mouths upon the arrival of Mrs T. I must say she does have a great presence and a sense of authority in her. Its like she has everything under her control. The children was scolded by Mrs T and reminded quiet throughout the duration that she was in class. She attempted to teach grande jetes, which reminded me of the DVD that I have. Obviously, it was a total disaster in terms of technique but in terms of enjoyment, the girls enjoyed it.

Thurs: The dance was must neater today than yesterday and the day before. Couldn't get anything from the tap section cuz I got no idea about the steps.

Friday: The summer school was held in the Tanglin CC instead of RGS. The studio is pretty nice! The dance became neater than the day before although it was still untidy.

Saturday - Summer school concert day: Had to rush all the way from loyang to SCGS. Arrived there and found one of my student's hair so untidy! Had to quickly do up the hair in the auditorium in front of everyone! A bit embarrassing but no choice. Talked abit to Ms N. Thought she would ignore me. Anyway donno why she is angry lah!
A pleasant surprise came at the end of the concert when Mrs T annouced that my girl won the scholarship! I was quite happy at that moment. Its like.. WOW... she kind of "outshine" all the SCGS girls. Rebecca came to ask me to take a photograph with her so that she can blow it up and stick on the notice board! hahahaah. Of course I'm not going to do that. Even Barbara congratulated me after the event. so nice......

Thoughts: I felt really bad when I saw the other two girls almost tearing because they didn't win. They were too young to understand that they must put in effort to win. I kept on assuring them they are excellent girls. Oh dear... poor little girls... Its really hard on them, isn't it?
The Level 1C HMs are all SCGS gals. I thought one of them was not very deserving of the awards cuz she was so act smart and noisy and spoilt. The other 2 were okie. They were good girls.
