    I worked as a Daycare teacher last 2007-2008 after that I found new job and spent almost 7 years working at Pines International Academy as housekeeping.
    The good thingsI did enjoy teaching toddlers at the same time as their overseer at school, molding their innocent mind to grow with fear in the Lord. With Pines international academy I just dont do housekeeping chores but helped in the admin office. I loved when interacting with foreign students .My English grammar and speaking skills is being challenged knowing that some of them can't speak English well.
    The challengesI didn't or sometimes I fail with the pressure of the negative attitude of some of the students because some are not open-minded. They don't let me take time my self to explain my side whenever there is a problem.Afterall the notation is housekeeping should always be blamed.

    For your training ground only.
    The good thingsThe trainings for their future teachers are very helpful and challenging. Books are provided no need to think for your next lessons you just need to strategise so that your student will not be bored especially if its a grammar subject.
    The challengesWhen your student don't feel you as their teacher they will just drop your class and just give invalid reasons.
