直週老師's Lunch





During the week of my duty, the school gave me a free lunch everyday. The lunch is not good. The quantity of food is not enough. Anyways, this week, I did not even need to worry about cooking and bring my lunch to school.

終於直週老師結束了!!

Today is Friday, finally, my duty is already finished. I had very tough duty, I have to stand in front of school's door and see student's uniform. If they do not wear appropriate uniform, I have to deduct points.

In western schools, teachers do not have to stand in front of school door and see students. Here schools in Asia, teachers have to stand in front of schools. Asian teachers not only teach in the classroom but also, they have to do some other extra works at schools.

The worst part is, teachers in Asia do not earn as much as teachers in western countries such as USA, Australia, or New Zealand.

This was a tough duty, I have to be 7:00 AM at school and leave at 6:00 PM. All my family have to leave early with me. My lovely husband is helping me a lot in this week. I drive Alan to my school and my husband is picking him up and drop him to school. David will take Alan to eat breakfast. Alan loves that. This week, father and son had a good relationship.

Next week, I do not have to do it my duty anymore. I am very happy now, I believe my family is happy too.

直週老師開始了!!!

From February 20th to February 27th, I have to do my duty. I have to check students' uniform. This duty is very tough, I have to arrive at school early and leave school late. More than that, during nap time, I have to see if the school is clean or not. It is very tiring duty. I really do not understand why Taiwanese schools made us to do it.
