portfolio? for what?

My school work. T_T

Have fun with your school work, meave.

good luck with that... i have so many things to grade... T_T
and since it's near finals... i have students around until like 4-4:30 too... -_-

That doesn't sound like fun. Dx

nope... not at all... i didn't have time to start grading until like a 10-20 min ago... cuz then another student decided to come by cuz his mom wasn't able to pick him up earlier... ^^;

Oh. Fun stuff. I can't imagine being a teacher. Dx

lol... it's not always this bad... sometimes they want to leave me before the bell... wait... did i say sometimes... i meant always... XD

Ohhh yeah. That's normal. xD Every one I know wanted to do that. XD

lol... i think same here when i was in HS... XD

Probably. xD Sometimes my teachers let us out early because it took a while to get from class to class.

i usually don't... teehee... then again, i'm one of those people who can get from one building to another plus make a stop at the restroom, and still get to class on-time with a min or two to spare... so i expect my students to be there on-time, and they don't get to leave early... XD

:gasp:
Miyu is one of those teachers~!?

....we need more of those teachers at my school.

It's sad when the students get there 5 minutes before the teachers xD

well, if it's the morning, my student's might actually get there before me... but i am never late... ^^;

I've had professors who were late. It bugs me. >__>

not many of my professors were late... that bugged us... lol... XD

Uuh. My english teacher is head of the department, and constantly gets phone calls from various angry parents...so tends to be late, or has to leave.

I suppose it's a little less annoying to have highschool teachers running late.
But professors and what not? Hmmmm

Hehehe. xD

actually we don't listen to phone calls during class time... or even near class time... it's all done after school... ^^;

Here they don't have much choice; it's either take the phone call now, or deal an irate parent in person when they come up to school half an hour later.

Our class tends not to mind, we do self supervision pretty well...most of the time :"O

our direct lines are off during school hours...
if parents come at that time, they'll have to deal with the office... and then after school, they can set up to meet with the teachers... XD

They need to think about something like that here.
But our 'office ladies' wouldn't deal with angry parents, they'd just direct the parent to the staff room, or have them wait until the teacher finished a class.

Most of our teachers do their meetings during lunch break away, since it's easier to get the kids to come then.
...and the teachers don't like staying after school D;

Lol. School troubles.
Now my parents cannot come up face to face with the school... they will need to travel for a 12 hours plane flight. :lol:

i usually stay after school... ^^;

Miyu is in primary school?
