So I found out I will be part of the Teach for Malaysia 2013 cohort earlier this week, yipeee!
However, I know this is actually a serious matter. I'm doing this for a good cause and I want to make a difference.
The children I will be working with are children in high-need regions in Malaysia and this will not be an easy task. I've been reading a lot of the experience and challenges faced by the current TFM fellows and I'm nervous if I can do this or not.
So, for now, I'm looking up for ideas online of children behavioral management and also tips to teach (i'm most probably be teaching science)
Some of the websites that are helpful :

My other concern of taking up this job is my responsibility to my future husband to whom I will be marrying in July.
This job entitles me to go to a two month training living in the institute from end of october to december which means I will be away from my husband just a few months into our marriage. My current fiance has been supportive and proud that i got this job while both of my parents are skeptical of my decisions. I can't even express how much I love you, Nouri for being there for me and know how important this is for me.
I will try my best as a teacher and as a guide for these children and I will try my best to be the wife I should be for my husband. This two years will be tough, but I'm ready for it and I will try my hardest to make this work.
This is, my journey as a teacher ( and a wife ^_^ )
