Batam reflection Day 1
Things I learned
1. Resilience and perseverance to continue painting the room, despite the hot, humid conditions of the room.
2. Teamwork, as we had to work together as a single unit to carry out the painting.
3. Cooperation, as the task at hand was extremely vast, and we needed to work together, in order to complete the task.
Batam reflection Day 2
Challenges faced
During Teaching
1. The Batam student's English standard was much poorer than we had expected, as such, most of the phrases we had intended to teach them, which were on worksheets were to difficult for them to comprehend. As such, we had to scrap the idea of giving them worksheets.
At the kampung
1. Langauge barrier, as well as limited space, as such we were unable to carry out most of the originally planned activities. As such, we played simple games, like passing a ball, and other activities which were fun for the kampung kids. We had to remind ourselves, that our objective was not to follow the plan, but to bring joy and fun to the batam kids
Things I learned
1. I learned to be flexible, and not just follow the plan, but to take the initiative to adjust the plan accordingly.
