I'm Back

Hello everyone ! 안녕하세요 여러분 !
I'm back after few 2 years of hiatus. I've deleted all of my past post because it's kind of very personal, and now I've decided to wrote posts that are not very personal.
For starter, I want to tell you about my new class.

Can't believe that i already in my senior year at senior high, and I'm  majoring in social science.
Of course everyone knows that Math is very important no matter what your major is. And you can't simply learn math just by listening right ?
There is this one teacher in my school. She's a Math teacher. This is my second year to study with her. The very first question that i ask my friend when i got into grade 12 was "Who's our Math teacher ?". Because i know that Math is very important of course, that's why i'm asking. Because i don't want to get a wrong teacher for this crucial subject.
But my friend answered sadly "Ma'am Tati.. >_<"
NO WAY !!

Ma'am Tati was my Math teacher when i'm in grade 10. She was very vicious. (kind of) Lazy Teacher, she said it by herself that she was too lazy to teach us while standing so she only teach us while sitting. How can she wrote down the lesson to the white board while sitting in a chair ?
She didn't wrote it down.
She always spells the question out and also solve the question by speaking.
How can we understand Math that way ?
WE DIDN'T UNDERSTAND A SINGLE THING.

My classmate, Chatarina, were very afraid of Ma'am Tati because she is very stern and always pick students to come forward and solve few questions by themselves. Chatarina was not very understand Math so she always ask me everything about math. Whenever Ma'am Tati gives out questions and told all the students to solve it, Chatarina always sat beside me and ask for my help. 

One day, Ma'am Tati gives us some note to wrote down. But both Chatarina and I, we're having bad eyesight so we can't read it from our chair behind. So Chatarina moves to the very front chair to wrote down the note. Just right when she finished her note, Ma'am Tati already gives a quite difficult question. Because she tends to gave out the question to the student who sat on the front chair, Chatarina who's sitting in the front chair was frozen. Her face was very pale and her sweat was as big as an almond. But fortunately, Ma'am Tati didn't call her out to solve the question. 

When the class is over Chatarina get back to her chair beside me with her pale face. I asked her if she's alright, and she answered "NO, I'M NOT OKAY. OH GOD HELP ME, THAT TEACHER WAS JUST TRYING TO KILL ME WITH THE MATH QUESTION !!!"

Well i was kind of agree with her. Because Ma'am Tati was very vicious to students who didn't understand Math. She always get mad at them and sometimes even swearing to them. But in my opinion, it wasn't the students fault if they didn't understand what she was teaching about. Math wasn't language lesson which you can understand just by listen to it. We need to write it down and solve it, not just by listen to the question and solve it by speaking.

I hope that Ma'am Tati could change even if it was only a little bit and start to use the white board when teaching so that the student will understand about the lesson.
