Story of SEA Teacher Participant #BATCH 5

#First Week in Bangkok: It’s A Brand New Day!
(20th – 28th January 2018)

Today I woke up in different room, different roommate, different environment and even different culture. Everything was different. And suddenly something popped up from my brain like, “This is not your home, you are very far from your family, how you gonna survive here? Can you make a friend? How if you run out of money?” and I wask like “I will find out later, we never know what will happen next and now its time to shower!”

#Tuesday. Still Funday. Class Visit and School Visit.
(23rd January 2018)

When I heard that today we were going to visit a math class. My heart was skip a beat and I was like, why should we visit a math class? We have nothing in common! (I tried to convinced myself). But like it or not, I have to attend that class. The building was quite far from the dorm. As we walked there teacher may passed by. She was the teacher who will teach today. All of my fear just sank as I heard that she was not a math teacher, she was  a psychology teacher and today she was going to teach math class (that was such a relief).

As we arrived, we were welcomed by the students warmly. As usual we introduced ourselves one by one. Then the teacher began the class. The topic was about “The Problem Solving of Classroom Phenomenon”. She set up some situations that could happend in class. Then she turned out to be an annoying students, students that didn’t have passion in learn English, a talkactive student and a smart cookie student. Then she showed us how to deal with them in that situation.












PNRU has a demonstration school called Wat Phrasimahadhat Secondary Demonstration School, Phranakhon Rajabhat University. Today we went there for having a meeting with the school’s director, teachers, staffs and the students. the meeting began with presentation by the school director about the school, question and answer session, they also gave us souvenir an elephant doll and school tour.















Actually I was amazed by the students who attending the meeting. They spoke English well. They were students who joined the student exchange programfor one year to America last year, no wonder if  they could speak English fluently.

#Wednesday. Still Funday. Orientation and Another Class Visit.
(24th January 2018)

#Thursday. Still Funday. It’s Almost Friday.
(25th January 2018)

Today was the day for all of the SEA Teacher Participant to go to the school to do our duty. Three of my friends (Arma, Afifah, Hayani) and I were assigned to do our teaching in Princess Chulabhorn Science High School Pathumthani. Since this school so far from PNRU so we have to stay there from Monday to Friday, then on Friday afernoon we will go back to the PNRU. The school has provided us a dormitory as long as we teach there.

The school was quite big. I liked the environment, sorounded by field rice and far from the city. This school has attracted my attention because only students with excellent academic records in Mathematics and Science were qualified to apply for a place in the school. The ratio of successful junior applicants was about 1:22. In addition, the ratio of successful senior applicant was about 1:20. Only qualified students in 6 neighboring provinces were able to apply for Chulabhorn Science High School Pathumthani (CHSC Pathumthani).












As we arrived there we did our class observation. My part was in Teacher Palin class in Matthayom 2.











#Celebrating He Chalong Kan Tet

I thought I was here at the right time because in the evening this school was celebrating He Chalong Kan Tet. It was like a festival. And tomorrow will be no class beacuse there will be the continuation of this event called “Chalong Kan Tet” and also charity.














#TGIF. Back to Campus. Weekend. Chatuchak Market.
