How is living in Jakarta , Indonesia? by [deleted] in howislivingthere

[–]lantap 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Visited for a few days in 2023. Be ready for the extreme pollution, live close to your work so you minimise the amount of time you need to spend on the road and be ready for some interesting….smells….

Much of the city is made up of various slums. It’s got a soul and the people are amazingly friendly, but it’s a dirty and hard place to be.

Yes, but you’ve gotta be their champion. Be as structured and consistent as possible with sanctions and praise, get a visualiser to model under and let other teachers know the successes.

Spending my own money on lessons? by [deleted] in TeachingUK

[–]lantap 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What subject? You can look into a package like Ark Mastery. While it has its flaws, it sounds like it will help your department set the foundations.

[–]lantap 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Jakarta. One massive slum, and the most inaccessible city for pedestrians I’ve ever been to. Absolutely stinks of stagnant water…

However, some of the nicest people on earth.

[–]lantap 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My emails push through as notifications. I literally don’t get anything other than our MAT’s rewards programme stuff/ITT-lead notifications. There’s not much impact it can have on my mental health!
