Really, I can't wait.
It's been the longest summer, and one that I have actually enjoyed, despite the high amount of stress, the unbelievable number of people around, the massive workload we have all been subjected to for the past 3 months. Unfairfly, the AY teachers are now back to full time teaching, which IS unfair, as they are basically just squeezing the life out of us just because the contract allows them to.
So, Wednesday is my last day. I have decided that in order to finish the Delta I need to take time off, as I couldn't manage this pace at work AND combine it with the tight deadlines of the distance Delta...but I do need a full time job to pay the rent and all, although the pay is ridiculous. Anyway, considering that I have also fallen into the trap of a nervous breakdown, understandably I might say, I DO need time off to recover, study, and not be so lonely and stressed during the long dark winter months.
On the upside, apart from going back home and having time to study and complete the dip properly, there is also the fact that for once I'll be able to actually revise and get back in touch with all my TEFL books and photocopies that I have quickly skimmed while I was studying for the dip, but which I've never had a chance to really digest. This also means that finally I'll be able to keep a proper teaching blog, the way I haven't managed for this whole year, regrettably.
So, I'll be back soon, with all things TEFL.
