TOEIC證書20220110更新完畢
自從大學畢業後，除了教師甄試便沒有考過任何的英文檢定
隨著近兩年接了職場英語計畫要開設多益輔導課程
再加上任教班級越來越多學生因為升學需要報名人數越來越多
想說不如自己也親自上陣考一次見識一下2018改版過後的新式題型
同時也比較一下市面上販售的模擬試題與實際考題難易度是否有所差異
大部分學生報名了2022. 2/13的場次
我便趕在他們之前報了2021最後一個場次~
以老師身分再次應考也是壓力頗大
好在成績公布，滿分990我拿了980
大三那年的金色證書終於更新了!
有時候覺得，在教學現場日復一日講授著學科知識
是一個不斷掏空自己的過程
還是要適時透過各式方法充電增能
像是閱讀英文小說、掌握國際時事、聽英文廣播、看電影聽歌、參與研習
還有就是考英文檢定，看看自己對於本科專業知識的掌握程度
如此一來，才能在教學時有親身經驗的分享
同時，也能讓自己具備自信與專業
這便是經營自己的一種態度
「學如逆水行舟，不進則退」
在學習上懈怠便容易疲乏而倒退
時時砥礪自己、維持成長的心態(Growth mindset)
專業才能持久
影響力才能致遠!

Iris Message
那天在夢裡，淹沒在一片汪洋的自己
醒來時，眼角瞥見鹽的結晶
雙頰還沾附著海洋的氣息
呼吸時 空氣裡彷彿嘗起來還是鹹的
大概是在夢裡被洗刷了一回吧
究竟是在夢裡掘得多深
才挖到一口湧泉
多希望湧出的是源源不絕的靈感
至少可能還可以化成文字 成就不朽的詩篇
可惜 盡是積累在底層的雨水
漫向了自己
來不及站穩
就一路順流而下被帶往出海口流向了一片海
其實應該要開心的
那湧出的雨水是因釋懷而生
許是與過去和解了
然後又看到了久違的笑容及聽到了最後一聲的問候
伴隨著身影在那小路上漸行漸遠
然後就醒來了
發現自己在一片汪洋載浮載沉

"We are a perpetual work in progress"
As the clock ticks, we are all compelled to move forward without a stop. Once we slow down the pace, we may be overwhelmed by the fear and the anxiety of being left behind or losing rare opportunities to achieve more. However, what is inevitable in the life journey is that we will encounter challenges along the way and be at a low ebb sometimes, which might expose us to a downward spiral if we cannot retrieve the strength to conquer the pull of setback and find the way back to the right track. Helpless as it may seem, it is what we are actually presented and dealing with in our lives.
Now that it is an unavoidable part in the journey, then why not lean in and figure out the solutions. Solutions won’t emerge as soon as you expect everytime, yet bear in mind that it is of no help to be trapped at where you are for a long time since difficulties still remain unresolved and meanwhile the wheel of daily life keeps spinning. No one knows what happened to you and how you get hurt if you don’t tell them a thing, yet sometimes we are fully occupied by loads of works and feel too tired (or too complicated) to explain. Under the circumstance, it seems that it is better to concentrate on what you are able to be in control of and play your role well. Only when you handle things well and put them in order will you feel a true sense of relief and have time to develop an insightful mind to think clearly. And probably in the process, you will come up with new thoughts, being capable of thinking from different perspectives.
Many people believe that time heals; however, I somehow don’t agree with it. It is the genuine acceptance of the current state/reality and the growth of mindset that help you recover from the sorrow and the pain. We should acknowledge the truth that we are not omnipotent beings and it’s hard to make everything perfect. “We are a perpetual work in progress.” This is an inspiring sentence I read recently. What I’ve learned from it is the spirit of embracing our fragility and strengthening what we are adept at, which can spur us to walk farther and longer.

畢業季
去年夏天人在美國收到的一封訊息串起了與107學年度畢業的綜三丙丁一段深刻感動的緣分。
這屆的學生和我同樣在2016進入學校，我考取正式老師，他們剛升高一，
雖然不是高一就任課英文，但是因為擔任綜高組長，多少在各大說明會和就讀綜高的他們有些接觸，甚至也代課過一兩次。
還記得高一代課某一班時，活潑調皮的幾個男同學坐在第一排還彼此在台下聊天，總是干擾上課節奏，
不太常生氣的我，竟然在代課班動怒了。
經過高二分班，很替他們開心的是，他們成長許多，高三接下社會學程及自然學程的英文，再見到他們時已不再青澀莽撞，而是多了懂事知理的成熟。
在這一年的相處之中，慢慢摸索出兩個班級的特色及與他們溝通的方法，
社會學程的同學真的是大多數老師都會喜歡的一個班，課堂配合度超高、學生學習態度積極，總是會讓老師充滿動力做更多教學嘗試；
自然學程的同學，真的熱愛自然科學及數學，不過，英文卻是大多數同學的罩門，因此學習動機薄弱，課堂配合度和社會學程相較是相差甚遠，
學測後請兩班同學分組做報告--關於知名人權運動推動者的介紹，自然學程的同學心不在焉，說定的報告當日，PPT都還有組別沒有上傳，
於是，那堂課，我又動怒，嚴肅地和他們講了我的失望還有對他們未來的擔心，
當下只覺得不能放任學生以散漫的態度對待被交代的事情，這會影響他們未來處事的責任心，
好在，學生多多少少也是有把話聽了進去，下一堂課還是有模有樣地在台上呈現了差強人意的報告，至少跨出了一步，是好的開始，我想著。
身為人師，最開心的莫過於學生懂你對他們的在乎及用心，在畢業當天，學生傳來訊息分享說他很開心我沒有放棄他們班、開心我仍然在乎教育，
這樣的一句話真的有觸動到我心底，能記得能懂得還能懂感恩，真的是很令人引以為傲的成長。
