BIDDING FAREWELL TO THE TRAINEE TEACHERS FROM SEMARANG, INDONESIA

It was only like yesterday when I went to the Faculty of Education in UTM to welcome three teacher trainees who came all the way from Semarang, Indonesia [READ ABOUT IT HERE]. Today, their teaching practicum ended after spending 4 weeks in school. This would the best I could do to bid them farewell as well as to thank them for the time in school.

So I took them to this one restaurant in Taman Universiti, a new one, called "Asam Pedas & BBQ" - thanks to Puan Mazelina for the suggestion. The place had not only great surrounding but also delicious food. Now I have one more option of a place to go if I have a friend/friends visiting.

I hope Mr. Iqbal, Ms. Triya and Ms. Lilin had enjoyed the authentic Johor dinner. I wish them the best of luck in their future undertakings and hopefully they had had a wonderful time teaching here for 4 weeks.

WELCOMING THE TRAINEE TEACHERS FROM UPGRI SEMARANG, INDONESIA

19th April 2015 ~ I was asked to represent the Principal to attend an event in the Faculty of Education, Universiti Teknologi Malaysia. This event was held to welcome a few trainee teachers from UPGRI Semarang, Indonesia, to school. They would be undergoing a 4-week teacher training session and to me it would be more like an exchange students programme. I would have to see that they would at least not face any problem during their stay in Malaysia. That makes me sound a very important person.

As usual, I met another ex-student, Mr. Ser Kuan Wei from SPM batch 2008, in campus. How these people have really grown up so fast and how I have grown very old. *sigh*
