Episode 063: Ice Breaking (1)

Who is the owner of Noryangjin?

Cupbap lady selling cupbap on the street? Gosiwon secretary who urges overdue room price?

Or a school? Or school teachers?

If you simply think about it, it seems that the people who take root and live in this small piece of land called Noryangjin are the owners of this land.

But they cannot be the masters of this land.

This is because Noryangjin, where only them remain, cannot be regarded as Noryangjin.

So, who is the true owner of Noryangjin?

Are you a 9th grader who has been drinking all night and lying next to a power pole?

Or is it a retraining student who goes straight to the PC room as soon as he opens his eyes, or a firefighter who is chewing cheap bulgogi at a goshi restaurant?

Unfortunately, not all of them are owners.

The true owners of Noryangjin are the parents of the students who support them with the money they earned through sweat and blood.

‘At least, if you’re a person who eats at academy, it’s worth thinking about.’

I stood in front of the table and thought.

The instructor should be the one who can tell the students the fastest way to their destination.

This is because the ship of parental sacrifice sinks more and more as time goes by.

However, a trusting relationship between the instructor and the examinee is absolutely necessary to guide the examinee to dry land before the ship of the parents sinks.

But.

There is now less than half a year left until the entrance exam.

As long as the person who had been guiding the road before then cast 'I don't think this is the way...' and disappeared.

It will be difficult to create a trusting relationship between the students and me in a short period of time.

“...it might be difficult.”

If it is normal, this is the season when the lecture room should be boiling with the heat of those who have completed the June meeting.

However, as the full-time instructor ruined the mock exam in June, it was clear that such a number could not be expected.

If the classroom is half full, maybe it's full?

Once the academy received the list of students and prepared their own preparations, there was no help but to be a little worried.

No matter how many students I've been through, it's the first time I'm caring for a retaker.

However.

When I opened the classroom door and entered, a completely different landscape unfolded before my eyes.

First of all, the classroom itself was quite ordinary.

It didn't look much different from the high school classroom, except that lecture monitors were sparsely attached to the ceiling.

But the people in the classroom did not look ordinary.

“·················ogue.”

Dozens of pairs of eyes stared at me as soon as I opened the door.

For a moment, I couldn't help but stiffen up a little.

Someone who is staring at me with eyes full of veins.

The gloomy eyes of a person who is tired and leans his head against the wall.Even the challenging gaze of young female students in neatly dressed clothes.

They looked at me like they hadn't had water in a week.

It was clear that the academy had a lot of explanation about me.

So, even after dying like that in the last mock evaluation, there must be this number of people left.

Of course, not all of those people in the classroom were originally from this class.

Probably, there were a lot of people who ruined the June mock evaluation just like them in the original number of people that the academy had recruited.

Anyway.

As there were unexpectedly many students, the situation was not as bad as expected.

Because it's easier to keep the number of people there than it is to increase the number of people that don't exist.

So now the remaining problem.

It's just making people who look at me into my people.

“Come on, we don’t have time. I go to class right away. For the sake of convenience, I will do it in half-speaking, so if you are in a bad mood, leave now.”

There is no time or need to do anything like preemption.

It's time to talk about results.

* * *

“Don’t be arrogant with your grades in June, and write down where it hurts the most when you get hit by the criticism. It would be overwhelming just to worry about how to reinforce that part in the future.

Instead of greetings, I started the class with simple words.

Less than half a year left.

Because there was no time to laugh and talk leisurely.

“Now, open page 5 of the textbook.”

conduct a class

“First, we focus on vocabulary, grammar, and writing. As everyone knows, there are 7 questions for writing and 5 questions for vocabulary. I'm sure I'll grab it and move on. From writing first…”

Anyway, I didn't have time to build up from the basics one by one, just like high school students do now.

Since most of the people who are taking my class now have progressed more than one reading, I take over the minor things and organize them around important concepts.

Besides, they don't just sell one language course. I had to get the most out of it in the least amount of time.

“Now then, open page 15 of the textbook and solve questions 4 and 8. I'll go ahead and check it out when it's all over."

Lectures were given on concepts and students were asked to solve CSAT problems or mock exams that fit within the scope.

However.

Among the people who lower their heads and solve problems, you can see a man with his head raised and smiling.

With her relaxed expression, she looked at people solving problems as she turned the pen with her finger.

“A friend sitting in the middle of the second row. Did you solve all the problems?”

As I spoke, she, who was watching the other students, turned her head toward her and opened her mouth.

"Ah. Because you know all these things. I definitely remember the problems that I solved while listening to another teacher’s class last time.”

Then he smiles and looks at me. It's like, 'Isn't it different?'

Judging by the looks of it, it seemed that he was a person who came to my class after listening to another instructor's lecture.

And it seems that the same problem as the one in my textbook appeared in the lecturer's class.

It could have been enough.

In general, SAT preparation materials often contain SAT or mock exam questions or variations thereof.

But that didn't mean he was acknowledging her attitude.

Solving it and understanding it are two completely different things.

“Do you really remember everything?”

jerk. jerk.

I approached her and asked.

Then she nodded her head without any hesitation.

The students, who felt an unusual energy, looked at this with tense eyes.

"Yes."

She said. After hearing her answer, I walked over to her. Then, I grabbed her textbook.

Then she looks at me with a sullen expression, as if she's doing something.

I smiled and opened my mouth.

“Then tell me the problem of remembering, fingerprinting and seonji. And which textbook, how many pages, and how many questions.”

Then her expression contorted. The students around me looked at me with an expressionless expression.

“No… how do you remember all that? So far, I haven't solved one or two problems."

she said in a voluptuous voice.

Then the students around them nodded their heads.

There are dozens or hundreds of problems that everyone solves a day, and they seem to remember them all.

“Then shall I try?

let me say She snorts her and nods her head.

If you can do it, do it. I turned her gaze away from her and looked at her students.

“Does anyone of these have a grammar textbook for ‘Yangseonji Language’?

let me say From the other side, a man held up a thick book.

It's a book written by someone who hasn't missed the first hit for several years, so I thought at least one person would have it.

I nodded and opened my mouth.

“There is, too. Then can you check the question number 4 on page 25 of that book? A question with the word “June 2016 Mock Assessment” written next to it.”

Then the student who had been looking at the textbook began to turn the textbook quickly. The eyes of the students in the classroom turned to the student.

after a while.

The student who turned the textbook looked at me with a surprised expression.

"Right?"

When I asked, the student silently nodded her head. Then people started to roar around.

However, the girl who was snoring still had an expression full of dissatisfaction.

It's a textbook I made, so I'm not sure if this is something I can do.

I smiled softly and turned back. Then he looked at the blackboard and said.

“If it’s a writing or vocabulary problem, it doesn’t matter what is in other textbooks, so just tell me the passage. I’ll call you right away no matter where you came from or how many times you asked.”

Then, the cluttered classroom became quiet in an instant. Because it was practically impossible.

But after a while, some students started reciting the passage in question in a cautious tone.

I read all the passages and answered the questions right away.

“That question is My Story page 11, question 6, the answer is number 2, is it a variation on the 2015 SAT exam?”

“And the next one is Mr. Gap-Geun Kim’s literature textbook, question 7 on page 22, and the answer is number 2.

“Um, the last thing you should have said is that Yeonji Lee’s textbook, question 3 on page 75, and the answer is number 4… that was wrong. There is no answer to that question, so check it out.”like that.

After I got the students right one after the other, no one asked me any more questions.

I turned around and said to the girl.

“This is what I remember,” she said. What you did was not 'remembered', but 'remembered'. Well, I don't expect this much from you guys, but when you solve a problem, understand it a little more clearly. What do you do when you loose it once and skip it? It's not a waste of paper."

Then the girl's face turned bright red.

It may be a little cruel, but this place wasn't a playground.

If it was around February or March, I could lead the students without using such extreme methods, but now I have about 5 months left.

In order to take everyone in the classroom within that short amount of time, I had to get rid of the students' doubts about me as quickly as possible.

But it was still not enough.

It's a sudden situation right now, so I'm embarrassed to say anything, but if I go later, there might be a squeaking noise from behind.

So I needed to show more of my abilities.

“Let’s do everything while we’re doing it. This time, it doesn’t matter if it’s literature or non-literary, so feel free to ask.”

let me say Students make faces that are nonsense.

However, writing and vocabulary problems are still in the works, so even if it was possible, they thought that it would be difficult.

However.

Their expectations were undoubtedly shattered.

Let's try to solve the problems posed by the students regardless of scope.

I began to feel the dangerous heat in the eyes of the students looking at me.

It was like looking at a pseudo-teacher.

Even the girl who spoke her words for the first time was looking at me with burning eyes.

But then.

“Oh, sir. The problem you just mentioned. Wrong?”

One of the students in the back raised her hand and said to me.

Then, in an instant, the atmosphere of the classroom, which had been engulfed in strange heat, was destroyed in an instant.

"Huh? What problem?”

when i ask The students in the classroom looked at the student at the same time.

The questioning student opened her mouth with a triumphant expression on her face.

“Um, the question you just talked about, ‘When Lee Hyo-seok’s Buckwheat Blossoms Bloom’. The answer to this is 5, not 2? And although the answer is ‘describe a lyrical and romantic atmosphere’, it is a little different from what the prophets said.”

Then he picked up the book and showed it to the people around him. People around him looked at the textbook and nodded their heads.

"okay?"

As I spoke, the questioning student grinned heavily and nodded her head.

From the looks of it, the only wrong problem was his own, so he seemed quite proud.

However.

His smile was too quick.

'Cause it's not over yet 'til it's over

“Is that ‘Yangseonji Korean’?”

Then he nodded his head with a look of indifference.

I smiled and asked him.

“Is that the old version or the new version?”
