Class Personalities

Each class that I teach has a different personality. Today I will introduce you to them.

Academic One 
The Class Clowns

  • Energetic
  • Funny
  • Loves to participate and contribute out loud
  • Easy going but can be rowdy
  • Doesn't finish lessons as quickly as the other classes


Academic Two
The Cranky Kids

  • Hit or Miss
  • Has the most kids that talk back
  • Opinionated (Not necessarily a bad thing)
  • Longest time needed for test taking
  • Lunch - sometimes they can't settle down, sometimes they all seem asleep
  • Can be the least participatory


Academic Three
The Smart Kids
  • Most intelligent
  • Fastest at lessons and tests
  • Best behaved (except for one particular student)
  • Sometimes this class feels bland because the kids are smart, but not always vocal
  • When they feel like participating in a discussion, it is thoughtful and insightful
  • I like to be observed in this class

Despite their differences, I do not really have a favorite class. One day I will love a certain class, and the next day they will be monsters. So, how I feel about each class depends on what kind of mood I am in as well as what kind of mood they are in.
