 |
|
Hi! Well, these are just random questions that I've written down a couple days ago because I've been thinking about them (I'm Captain Obvious  )
So...
How much (NT$) do you spend a month on groceries, average?
Do you have a co-teacher? What is it like working with a co-teacher? What are some of the problems you run into with co-teachers? Or maybe just your current one? What are the benefits of a co-teacher? Do you have any stories?
Lastly, what are the electrical sockets over there? Are they like the ones we use in America? I figure, since I've been in Europe, I will need adapters for my stuff now 
OK thanks again!

My girlfriend and I usually spend between $3000-4000NT/mth on groceries, but we try to cook at home a lot....its more common to eat a lot of your meals out...so much food choice around every corner

Sorry can't help...I run my own classroom!

Sockets are the same as Canada/USA, but they usually don't have the 3rd ground plug , just the 2 main ones....you can buy 3 packs of adapters at Carrefour for $99NT, so don't waste your money on adapters from home (we bought a $20 adapter at Future Shop in Canada, that we don't even use anymore)

| Your co-teacher can either be your best friend or your worst enemy. I've had one co-teacher go psycho at me in front of my boss and kids and another one correcting me, telling the kids they were wrong when writing numbers. My last co-teacher was an Angel. She did so much work. It really is a luck of the draw but also whether the two of you just click. |
