What more to say now??

Fuh2...tiup2 sikit dah berabuk dah blog teman ni... Ngeeeeeennnnggggg...(bunyi vacum plak. Ada ke vacum bunyi camni?) Hehe...pape jela kan...Gatal je dah rasa jari-jemari teman ni nak menulis. Gian kot. Before this asal nk menulis je ada je keje...Kat office lagi la tak sempat. If tak da class, ada keje len nak buat. Update report everyday. Report saje ada 4, 5 jenis report...Gini la rupenye ye...

Actually, tak da menda or topik panas pun teman nk tulis. Just nak citer sikit tentang the beginning of my career. Previous entry, teman ada kabor kat kome sume kan teman dapat keje kat satu IT centre. Tempat budak2 blajar multimedia, graphic design kejadah sume la...Now, almost 3 weeks dah. Rasa cepatnye masa berlalu. Ni teman nak cite ni, teman memang tak pandai nak jadi teacher. Serius tak!! Dulu opah teman suka sgt sikit2 nak suruh cucu2 dia jd ckgu. Teman and abang-abang teman siap jawab lagi, balik2 cikgu. Balik2 cikgu. Tok nenek moyang kita dulu sampai le ke opah and atok belah bapak teman, memang cikgu. Udah2 le tu opah...Bagi kami jadi menda len plak yer. Tu dia...menjawab dulu ni macam nih. Sekarang?? Padan muka!! Kan da dpt jadi cikgu. Tapi teman dah biasa dah mcm ni...Memang yang teman cakap tak nak la teman akan dapat. Sgt selalu mcm ni berlaku dlm hidup teman yer...

Memandangkan antara banyak2 job vacancy yg teman apply ini salah satu yg the best yg panggil teman, so teman teruskan aja dulu...1st week memang gelabah lipas wo... Bila senior explain kat teman on the first day,  dlm system ni kena buka ada mcm2 report teacher kna update....and then sume attendance pun pakai system komputer. Kalau ada absentees dlm ur class, SILA CALL THEIR PARENTS TO ARRANGE REPLACEMENT CLASS. Wow!! Masa tu x bernafas, berpeluh2 teman dengar rasa cam banyak nye menda nak adapt. Sume pakai system computer. Sebelum ni teman rasa teman banyak guna komputer masa study tapi actually my computer usage dulu sgt la minimun ok!! Just use power point utk presentation, word utk assaignment and ada la skt2 menda len utk edit photo. Urgh...Bila msuk ITKING ngajar, banyak giler menda related to computer nk kena biasakan. Bila menda tu bukan field kita, and tak biasa, permulaan mmg rasa ssh giler. Honestly 1st week mmg low self-esteem. COnfidence mcm tahap pokok togey jer...

Masuk second week, boss suruh masuk satu class yang teacher dia tu on leave that day...Hah?? Bru seminggu masuk minggu kedua dah kene ngajar?? Huwaaaa....dlm ati boleh ke tak boleh nie... Nasib baik class tu tak ramai x smpi 10 org pun. Ok la...teman ngajar apa je yg dah training tentang Adobe Illustrator last week tu. Everything yg teman tau, just bagi sume kat budak2 tu. Selesai jer lega beb. Then kali kedua teman disuruh ngajar, yg ni Adobe Photoshop. Nampak senang tapi teman x sempat prepare. Training pun bru seminit selesai terus kena ajar. Serius rasa teruk masa tu. Xpe, I learnt from my mistake...ni kelemahan teman sbb mmg xda skill ngajar.  

In the middle of second week, boss bagi teman take over 3classes. Means this is my own classes la. Sampai hbs semester teman akan mengadap student ni. But the problem is bila class tu tukar dari 1 techer ke teacher yg len, student akan mcm pelik2 gitu...Masa mula2 teman masuk muka sume blur giler. Agaknye mcm rasa len la. Pulak tu nth2 dlm hati diorg ni depa ckp, cikgu ke ni?? Kecik nye...Maybe la kn...Tak pa2... 2 class teman handle mmg depa bru masuk semester baru so teman start from lesson 1 la. Ajar depa drawing guna Illustrator.  1 class ni, ada dlm 10 org, depa ni senyap giler mula2...jenuh teman cari jalan nak buat depa bercakap. Tak pa, maybe mula2 je. Depa tak biasa ngn teman lagi. Satu kelas ni ada dlm 8 org student gtu, masa 1st class teman masuk memang some of the student silent. Ada 2, 3 org yg kepo je akan respond to my question. So teman kena la amek ati yg silent tu kn...Treat them like friends, they start to laugh and smile with me. 2nd time teman masuk kelas ni, teman banyak kn lagi interaction with them in class, seems like they start to accept me as their new teacher. Maybe sbb masa ni teman hbs lesson awal. Sbb lesson 2 memang simple. Bila time buat exercise, teman kasi activity mcm competition. Teman ckp 2 org terawal siap draw the lady bird before the class end, teman promise kasi depa chocolate. Application of positive reinforcement here. Wow!! Nampak sgt bersemangat mereka ms tu. Teman tunjuk step sikit jer, selebeynye depa buat sendiri. Seronok sgt time tu sbb they start to ask me question. All of them. I go to them one by one ms depa khusyuk draw and make jokes dgn depa. Ok dah this class nmpknye. Tapi ada satu lagi class ni, 12 org sumenye, yg ni smpi la ni, teman mmg ssh hati ckt. Depa ni same cm other class teman handle, secondary school. Tapi yang form 4 form 5 kebanyakannya. So, fhm2 la keras hati ckt. Tak dpt nk tackle depa lagi. Muka sume ketat giler. x senyum lgsung. Kadang2 teman buat lwk,  teman tnya soalan, sembang2 ngn depa, no response at all!! Rasa cm ckp ngn batu. Imagine how I feel that time. Urrgghh...tapi sbr la dulu, teman kena fkrkn mcm mana nk tarik minat diorg dlm class. Tapi maybe jgk teman take over their class pun dah tinggal lagi 2 lesson je. Dah hujung. So maybe depa dah x kisah apa ckgu ckp. Haha...Takpa, next semester teacher akn handle u ol jgk... So nk tak nak kita akn jumpa lagi ok!! Aku sedang plan beberapa strategy utk class budak2 keras hati ni. Hehe...

So, overall...now almost 3 weeks I be a teacher. I am getting use with all the system. Dah biasa ngn report2 semua tu sbb buat hari2 so dh x glabah dh. Now, just nak polish creativity in teaching skills... Rasa seronok plak job ni...Confidence level makin increase sbb dah x glabah lipas dh..hehe...Tapi still, I dunno whether I will be a teacher forever or I'll switch my career later... Here some picture...

Ni formal attire, yg aku tak sukanya kami wajib tucked in baju.  Ergh!!
Gambar mcm hape, pakai hp teman yg x canggih...

Informal attire...

Masa ngajar ni. Teman akan control sume PC dari belakang...student juz look at their own screen...

Satu kelas je tmn snap pic. Class yg blur tgk new teacher masuk class depa.
Selain guna PC dr blkg, whiteboard tu bole digunakan jgk utk explain cretain things.

Ni lollipop gurl yg teman cite last entry. Budak nakal kt ITKING. Tapi teman tak pernah masuk class dia lagi.

Lollipop Girl...

Semalam my first day working. Tapi belum start ngajar lagi coz smlm ITKing Education Franchise Group ada Competition "Perak Inter-school IT Literacy". Event ni kt Jusco, so ke jusco la kami bersama budak2 tu smlm. Masa sampai kt jusco tu teman berkenal-kenalan la dgn my new colleagues...Mostly Chinese, but Malay and Indian pun ada  cuma x ramai. Terasa this is new process of socialization sbb before this even kt skola and uni most of my frenz are Malays. Now blaja la minggle ngn non-malays...but they're nice. But still this is my first impression yg belum tentu manis selamanya...Byk lagi hari akan dilalui and mungkin byk perkara yg tak disangka2 akan menerjah kan. Teman pun sebenarnya nervous, to be a Training Instructor here sama la mcm jadi ckgu. Tak pernah terfikir akan jadi teacher and tak pernah terfikir pun me teaching in front of the student x kira la what level of ages. Sbb mmg xda bakat teaching... Tapi ni la dikatakan rezeki, maybe ini my first step in career, dun know what will come in future... 

Utk event hari ni, teman selaku 'Teacher' itu panggilan the kiddos smlm pada teman, perlu jadi like baby sitter pengganti kepada their parents who not accompany some of the students during the event. Since kt tmpt public kn, yg junior kecik2 ni kami kna control takot merayap nth mane2.... Guide depa pergi masuk gelanggang competition bagai la. Hah, mula2 mmg fikir kawal depa je la... x terfikir langsung mcm2 gelagat depa yg perlu dilayan. Well, yg kiut miut tu ada yg pemalu and ada yg talkative sbb still x knl teman their new teacher. But ada yg mula2 malu2 bila sembang2 ngn depa, amek ati puji2 ckt....Wah, akhirnya they show their true colors.... comel rupanya bila dia bersembang...banyak pulak ceritanya...teacher i like bersenam, i have PSP...teacher, I so like eat... mmg buat teman tersenyum je dengar. Yela, kids kn kalo cakap dia ckp jer...x kisah apa perlu ckp apa x perlu ckp. 

Okey kalo tgk entry ni tajuknya lollipop girl kn, ni an attention seeker kid. Before event ni start my fren ada warning ckp "We'll face with some 'monkeys' among the students okey". Huh? Mula2 teman x fhm, bila makin ramai yg dtg and ada yg nakal2, x bole duk diam, yg tu dia kata 'monkeys'. Hoho...kesian dpt nama mcm tu. Tapi this lollipop girl diberi nama lollipop gurl sbb dia ske sgt mkn lollipop dlm kelas pun sama. Dia ni mmg naughty girl, my fren kata dia dlm clz pun camtu. An attention seeker. Suka buat org pay attention kat dia. Bayangkan la dia sorang aja sampai 3x teman kena bawa g toilet. Kat jusco tu wlupun ramai org, di ajaknye teman main...pusing2 dia la....dia sandar, peluk2...padahal x kenal lagi tu...Lompat2 la dia, panjat teman yg kecik ni...aiyo nasib dia pun kurus. Kalo teman dpt handle clz dia...xtau la apa lagi gelagat dia nk wt. Tapi so far smlm xde la yg dasyat2 perangai dia buat. Still undercontrol. Ok then i understand i should be ready with macam2 perangai kids. Yg secondary school pun actually ada yg nakal tapi teman blm jumpa lg smlm. 

Tapi ada 1 chinese girl ni standard 2, she ask about my hijab. "Teacher, what is this?"(muka ala2 comel tgk shawl teman)...I said "this is shawl..." dia sengeh2 mcm x fhm. I'm quite impressed masa tu napa dlm byk2 menda dia terasa nak tnya soalan ni. Muka dia mcm ada persoalan why this teacher cover her hair... Itu yg terpacul soalan tu agknya. Haha... tu jela ragam2 yg teman face semlm...enjoy but tired. Tapi xpa, hr ni cuti. They normally give 1 day off after a day event...Hope to be a good teacher...

First Job Interview

Alhamdulillah...

Hari nie teman baru je lepas my first job interview...

Serius x expect after 2days hbs exm, kna g interview.

Smlm email resume, other documents bagai, giler cpt ptg dh kol panggil interview esoknye.

Cuak pun ada bila dpt kol smlm that lady asked me to come for interview.

Tomorrow lak tu (today), gelabah nk prepare all certificates nk certified bagai.

Nasib sempat... Thanx to Mdm. Nurazzura and Sir. Khairulanuar.

Bertambah-tambah kelam semalam bila fkr nak pakai baju ape...haha

Nk interview kn, kna la present our best attitude, appearance, personality sume.

Mlm smlm study la ckt bout the company kot la dia tnye nnt kn...

Mlm smlm tu hati dub dab dub dab serba x kena buat ape pun.

Tapi nsb tdo lena jer.

Pagi nie bgn, get my self well-prepared, redah je.

Sampai kt company tu at Desa Sri Hartamas, syukur sgt hlg sume nerves.

In fact, sgt excited!! Haha...

Dh isi form, masuk...Ngadap interviewer tu. Byk giler soalan tanyer.

But alhamdulillah I manage to answer all the questions...

Comment the interviwer, everytg ok, academic dia kata impressive (bangga ckt ms tu..buwerk!!)

 cumanye teman ni xde experience yg ada cuma part-time and internship (dh sedey kt cni...). 

Psycho aku je dorg ni...

They said working in that company will be much much much triple pressure.

Bkn biasa2 punye pressure but abnormal pressure.

Kna bear dgn all the maki hamun sumpah seranah, no spoon feed culture, you have to be independant!!

Seriously!! Hurm...

They need someone with more experience to bear all the job demand lah.

Katanya...

But I'd try to convince them...

Well, just wait another one week until they reveal the result.

They need to review my qualification, skills, talent bla bla bla lah.

Katanya jgk...But it may be a way to reject candidate actually.. normally la, if x tu, xtau la kn.

Teman pun x berharap sgt. Ada rezeki alhamdulillah. Plus this is my first trial for interview.

Not necessarily akn dpt kn. Org lain jenuh bape kali interview bru dpt job.

Competition skg ni byk sgt, I'm juz happy because at least I've learnt from my first experience

to improve for the next interview may be.

Nak tau ape soalan mereka?? 

Saje je nak bgtau, kot2 bole korg dpt ckt gmbrn ape yang interviewer usually ask during the interview.

Kot2 korg pun tgh nk prepare for job interview...

Mostly lbh krg same jer...

Among the questions are:

1) To begin, please introduce yourself....

2) What do u study in sociology?...

3) How do you differentiate between sociology and HR?...

4) How is sociology relevant to HR?...

14) If your boss or team leader are not around, are you able to work independantly without anyone assisting you, without anyone to guide you? How will you settle all the abundant jobs?...

Ok that's all la among the questions yg aku igt... Rasanye tu je la kot.

Ada la less than 30 minutes interview session nie...
