Teaching 9 difference turmas three times a week each can get dizzying. I forget which kids are in which class (I have at least 50 students per turma) or which class has finished which lessons (even though I write it all down). Sometimes I write something on the board, turn around, and ask the students if we’ve already done this lesson before. It wasn’t until 20 minutes into my 5th lesson today that I realized I was in the wrong class. I asked the class “Is it time for English?” “No teacher, it’s physics.” Well, none of them seemed to care that I’d taught for 20 mins and the physics teacher never came in to stop me so I kept on going.
