Help - Lost Newbie
Posted: Mon Jan 25, 2010 5:55 am
A little while ago I got my first teaching job in a new school. When I got here, there were no materials. Basically, it was up to me to design the syllabus & materials for their future use. The students are paying their fees before the materials are there, and then the eyes are on me.. There are six courses, each consisting of 48 hours. Besides the English teaching I am also expected to deliver personality development. Is this usual in Asia or what? There is no-one around whom I could consult or ask for a second opinion, and I haven't taught any of these subjects, so just using my own judgement.
Now, besides all this, I Am now working on a Advanced course and am lost on what to include, as the preceding course is for Beginners, so everyone who is not an absolute Beginner will end up in the Advanced class.
I would really appreciate any advice on this..
Thanks
