I wanted to write of my ordinal days. Considering readers all over the world, I found I should refer to the data of working circumstances in Japanese school. It is shocking though.
I will start writing my impression and the reality from my experience from tomorrow, and today I will write my case.
I wake up at 5 am and study English and other language (currently Chinese). I cook, get dress and commute to school by car. It depends on traffic but usually takes about 30 minutes.
I get to school around 7:20am. Our working hour starts at 8:20 but I usually arrived at school one hour earlier. Many students have their club activities in the morning and come to school around 7:10, so few teachers come to school much earlier. I open doors of the floor of my grade for ventilation, clean the staff restroom voluntary, and start preparing a new day.
Students have to come to school by 8:30 and I have to be at my homeroom by that time. We have reading time and short homeroom, and the first class starts at 9am. Students have 6 classes a day, and I usually have 4-5 classes. When I have no classes, I check students’ homework or preparing for classes or school events. We have school lunch together. We also clean school before students go back to school. All classes are done at 4:10pm.
Most students have club activities again. I coach volleyball. Depending on the season, it finishes at 5pm in winter and 6:30pm in summer. Then many teachers still work till around 7 or 8pm. The working hour is by 5pm by the way. Also as you can see from the article, we do not get extra money.
Then I go to a gym to work out. Barbel press and swimming are the reason for me to live haha. I get off from the gym around 9pm. Go back home, have dinner and sleep around 10:30. Yeah it is busy, and I will write some Japanese school system and my impressions of the article from tomorrow.
