As we teach, we learn even more.
Today was an extremely fruitful day, though lessons were learnt (by us) in a harsh way.
The children were largely unresponsive and unable to comprehend much of our explanations during class today. I believe it is necessary to make our explanations during the lessons shorter and easier to understand for the children in the future.
If pictures say a thousand words, an action says ten thousand. Even myself had some problems following Dao Yuan's instructions when he was talking to the children a few metres away. Maybe we should not use technical terms so frequently in the future, it is really 对牛弹琴.
Placing ourselves in their shoes, picturing ourselves listening to a handsome, scholarly gentlement pointing at 3 ovals in a rectangle and talking about diagonal lines with a American accent isn't the way to go.
Let's work on it, onward team.
