Sasha & Vera

  Now I and Sasha are working by Korean teachers at Russian school

It was child dream - working by any teacher when I grow up

I want become teacher and transfer my knowledge to other people

I like teach very much! Teaching is very interesting and important for me

I like to explain unknown things for students

Wonder that Sasha had the same dream, may be cuz we are twins hahaha

In 2005, when we were studying on 3d grade of the Oriental Institute, we had participated on 5 international conference of students, graduate students and young teachers

That conference was about the actual problems of languages, history, culture and education of Asia-Pacific region

We posted our assays and our works had published in a collection of conference’s materials

After that conference I and Sasha suddenly got a work by teachers at one school

We were student in that time, so it was incredible change bring closer dream of working by teacher after graduation

We were working by real teachers in first half of day, other half of day were attending university

But such big luck, delight and happiness continued not so long how we expected

We got that were registered like temporary teachers and got small salary after month of tensely work

It was 100% deception from director

May be she considered that for student needn’t food and money for cost life!?

We left that school

After that bad experience we stayed at the university and didn’t applied other offers about work with Korean before graduation

Time gone very fast and we got diploma semester time

We got diplomas with honors, but didn’t got other offers about work with Korean after graduated

We worked a few months in other schools by teachers on extra lessons for money

But it was not main job plus indecent salary and a lot of free time

And we decided create new resumes and apply another job’s offers for living

Then was work in insurance company by consultancies for insurance people from accidents and illness

Then was work in auto-spare part shop, then sole-proprietor work

So didn’t noticed how 4 years gone at one moment

On this summer Sasha got very tempting suggestion about work by Korean teacher and asked me companied her there

I got this offer

Since 1 of September 2011 we started work at new school

Last Friday, in September, 23 we were invited on Korean courses for Russian teachers

We couldn’t prepare homework due of lack free time even for rest, cuz we were needing create studying programs almost for all school

During lesson I catch me on thought that I could understand only 60 percents of teacher’s speech

Time is leading fast and in speach come more and more new words and expressions, they are mixing, changing and become common

We missed modern Korean lexis due of lack speech practice~ omg

It was so shame when she were asking us some questions, and I were keeping silence or said that couldn’t got question

I was able to create only trivial sentences with simple grammar

In my head start running film with all 5 years university life, where we were willing students, who always were learning plenty Korean lexis and could create any conversation with teacher

I recognized that without probation which we didn’t got at the university, lack of practice and work with Korean my speech knowledges melt like snow at sping’s sun

I felt frustration about it, cuz earlier I was among best students at the university

I convinced that Sasha got the same feelings~

Unfortunately we couldn’t go to Korea, even were studying on A marks only

Instead of willing students in Korea were invited only Russian Korean students who were dancing, singing and playing on drums

It was unfair for other students, but choice was done

Back to courses

I felt incredible shame and that I was dumbest student in this group

It was so humiliating asked other teachers about help for understanding teacher

I felt incredible disgrace, cuz I am working by teacher and studying pupils by grammar and can’t fluently express my thoughts and feeling to native speaker

Courses teacher is our collegue at school, she is native Korean women

I like her as person and as good teacher at our school

I don’t want attend that courses cuz of shame and don’t want that she become upset about few teachers in her class, hence decided attending it

After Korean courses some “students” have possibility go to Korea for increasing speech and grammar knowledges

It’s reward for hard-working teachers from Korean centre

I consider that I can’t get it, cuz there 4 another teacher who was in Korea and know Korean speech in best way, instead of me and Sasha

Plus I don’t have big wishes go to Korea, cuz my wishes and university dream visit Korea had disappeared with deprivation of probation to Korea

I convinced that it’s our grandmother’s fault, who were always fart on us for dad

She is ruling by him during all life, and he listens her with pleasure

She always repeats for dad that it’s could be dangerous, no sence, we could just wasted money in Korea for fun not for study and in the end wouldn’t have possibility find good job with Korean here and couldn’t back money for her

But how own grandma could think such thing about her grand-childrens who was exellent pupils at school and university, it’s crazy and incredible crap!!!!

Of course he obeyed her words, and continue ask advices on any issue all the time~~~

Both of them always try creating destiny of other people

They so greedy that spoiled us piece of lives

We realized it after graduation but nothing didn’t changed

Wishes and spark in eyes had faded

We got interes for China after participation in a Russian delegation in the 2d (2006) and 4d (2008) international twins day in Mojiang, China (第届中国•墨江北回归线国际双胞胎节暨哈尼太阳节在墨江举行)

Now a days we have a lot of friends from Taiwan, Singapore, Malaysia, Hong Kong, China, Greece and Kuala Lumpur and others and chat with them in English

It’s amazing feeling and so interesting!

Now i really liked China and Taiwan itself, nature, culture and people, contrary with Korea

I wonder why destiny gave to us second change –new work with Korean more than by teachers at school!

One consolation it’s our collegue, who will feel useful person which helping other teachers increase Korean knowledges

Hope I will be able swallow that shame and continue attend this courses

Think its right direction for now, until we have good weather without snow and icy roads

I’ll try being willing student, rising my knowledges and remembered forgotten things

So, don’t judge me strictly

Yours, Vera
