First day at work
First Day at WorkYup, first day being instructor at nypgc. I swear its very much more comfortable than teaching secondary school students. At the same it really feels good being back to where I started off 5 years ago and contribute, afterall without this organisation I wouldn't be teaching now.
One of the very good takeaways from national service would be the skills to conduct lessons in a systematically and efficient way. It gives people the feeling of you really know your stuff, and that really gains confidence from your 'customer'. At the same time, being in the same position as them in the past enables me to know their needs and pinpoint the critical stuff which makes the lesson a smooth and fun one.
All in all, good organising skills, know your stuff well, know your 'customer's needs are some key factors in everything you want to achieve. I guess this is very much alike in sales line too..
It feels really good when people are coming back after lessons wanting to learn more, the smile on their faces tells me it has been a fruitful 1.5 hrs for them. What a wonderful thing being able to place your passion and work together. I wished~
I love teaching !
