Timing

New teachers should always wear a watch. After a while you know when to start finishing a lesson. I worked in Taipei with a teacher who overran a class by 30 minutes. We were doing back to back teaching so his next class was short change by 30 minutes and so was mine.

    Yes, Gibble, you've rung my bell here:

    I remember long time ago when I was still a fresh teacher, I'd forgotten the time then overran a training lesson by one and a half hours! So silly me ... but funny was that, the students were very happy because they thought they got the bonus of an hour and a half lesson free!

    I've promised myself - it won't happen to me in the rest of my life!!!

    I did have a watch in Taipei that stopped and restarted an hr later, this made me late for the class. Maybe I should wear two watches !
