You Think It's Promotion

When I changed from being a teacher to become a supervisor, I felt that the schools responsible think that I’m not a good teacher for that they imprisoned me in that office. I refused and asked for a reason of that decision and the answer was, “because we trust your work and because you have abilities that we really need”. My coworkers envied me and told me that I will rest for the whole days.

I started work to find that I am responsible about:

1-    Monitoring students Progress.

2-    Keep the teachers trained and activated.

3-    Visit the class for problems, especially discipline.

4-     Prepare reports for student’s performance and absence.

5-    Keep in touch with parents and inform them about their children.

6-    Always be with the students in the playing ground and any place outside class, and that’s the most hard part because in their free time and in an open place you can’t expect what would they do.

7-    Follow up with the teacher for all extracurricular activities.

8-    Teaching schedules.

9-    Having a hand in planning for school events and implementing curriculum.

10-                       All official information for the Ministry of Education about these students must be prepared by me.

Many times I’m obliged to come during holidays or the vacation to do extra work.

For that don’t ever say: “the supervisor doesn’t work”.
