ENGLISH PRIVATE TEACHER

I was in the third semester when one of my friends offered me to join in LBB (lembaga bimbingan belajar) where she worked. I was offered as English private teacher because I am English department student. I was really interested to be a private teacher, so I accepted her offer.

My first student was in the seventh years of junior high school. Her name is Tiara. It was my first duty, so I was nervous when I had to teach her. From my first impression, she was lazy because she always griped when we were studying. However, after five or six meeting, I could see that she had big interest in English. She tried to develop her ability from watching movies or listening music. Therefore, I did not have any difficulty to teach her.

After I was Tiara’s English private teacher, the owner of LBB offered me to take more students. My new students were sibling. The older sister is Dita and the younger sister is Ita. Dita was tenth years of senior high school student. Ita was fifth years of elementary school student. Actually, their father wanted me to teach the older one, but the younger one had strong desire to learn English, as a result I had to teach both of them. Since I had another activity, I could not teach them again.

I was still tiara’s teacher but not anymore with Dita and Ita. After that,I had another additional student. Her name is Hesti, She was also seventh years of junior high school student. I rarely taught her because she was busy student, she had a lot of activities. In my opinion, she had not strong interest to learn English. She was interested in Indonesian literature and she had read a poem in Indonesian language at Istana Merdeka.

When I was in the middle of forth semester, I thought that I could not do as private teacher and student at the same time. Therefore, I decided to resign as teacher.
