Hello,
It's been quite a long time since I published my last post. However, as I was skimming through the points and reflections that I've jotted down during my last visit, I felt compelled to share some of the things that I've thought about...

The importance of establishing class rules a priori :- Mr. X refused to let 3 students enter the classroom late without bringing a note from the head justifying their lateness. However, this was the first time he took on this stance. Naturally, the students were gobsmacked and went out quietly. When they came in, Dusty rudely threw the note on the teacher's desk. The teacher rebuked by saying, "Int x'izzik tahseb li int!? Jien minix ir-rufjan tieghek." Eventually, he sent him out for the second lesson as well. Personally, although I cannot justify the student coming late when mostly all of his fellow classmates were on time, however, if I were the teacher, I would have had stipulated class rules at the beginning of the scholastic year and definately I won't try to assert my position by speaking rudely to a student. I would be lacking professionality if I were to tackle this matter this way.

Boardwork :- Another aspect which is worth mentioning is the importance of neat and organised boardwork. The lesson prepared by Ms. Y was about binary subtraction. Undoubtedly, this requires working thorough examples and explaining the method more than once. Ms. Y took care of using the board appropriately by dividing it in half and using headings as well. I feel that this will help the students structure their thoughts easily and above all, those who dared to take notes had the chance of copying organised notes which will surely help a great deal when they study for their exams.
