Generally...
Happy Republic Day!
Went for the flag hoisting today. Sang the national anthem. Felt sweetly patriotic. Reminisced about Republic Day Celebrations in my childhood. All the games and sweets. All my kutti friends.
About work, am thoroughly enjoying it. I'm teaching a beginners batch and once a week i teach the diploma evening students. I love it.

Ofcourse, most of the methodology i learnt falls flat. With 52 students it isn't posible to do group work and teach a substantial amount in 2 hours. Try it. The advantages are that Indian students are quite used to being a grupo numeroso. But the disadvantages are many more. We go very slow. No individual attention. All the students don´t get to participate so the shy/timid student loses out. Correction of home work is dificilísimo. Correction in general is difficult since there isn´t any time for individual correction. The classroom is arranged in rows since any other arrangement does not accomodate 52 students. And many, many more. You got any?
Anyway...
I proudly announce that I've joined the Hyderabad Choral Society. It was one of the few things i wanted to do.
So basically very busy... and inspite of everything happy. The best thing is that feel tired at the end of the day. So I get a good nights sleep.
