Today.. work work again.. nothing much difference from another plain working day.

I've gotten some really sad news..

A veteran teacher of JSS, Mr Wong Kiow, has died of a heart attack on the 22nd of December.
He has been in jss for over 20yrs, well known and respected by many.

His loud voice and disregard for students' hearing has broken too many a microphone for the stage ppl to count. His strictness will be remembered by the many who had bore his wrath.
And one will remember the smile on his face when his classes get good grades or when someone who graduated comes back to school and look for him. His biggg eyebrows will be regarded by many as unique and giving him a fierce look.

He had a special way of teaching his students that during the 1st 6mths of the year, the whole class will FAIL badly. but.. after midyr exams, the classes' marks will improve alot and alot. until end of the yr exams where they would score really high marks.. the classes finally can take in his way of teaching and therefore gain 'enlightenment'.

I personally feel indebted to him.. though he never taught a class i was in during my 4yrs, he was the remedial maths teacher that was assigned to teach the failures of maths in my sec2 period. Every week, twice, i would never fail to attend his lessons. As i was a rather bad failure in maths, i opted to take the front row seat and listen to him teach. as time passed, i finally knew how to do maths.. then test time.. finally i passed! but just marginally.. well, that was an improvement already.. by the time of the end-of-year exams, i could already score 60+ marks. which was a bigggg improvement than my 20+ 30 marks before...

I went on to get Bs and As for my E-maths.. thanks to his teaching in sec2.. eventually getting an A2 for 'O' lvls. alot will say, 'It's just an A2, anyone can get also'. Yes... Easy for you.. but i was like falling down a cliff and caught by a rope that was thrown to catch me and pull me back up.

For that, I am very grateful to Mr Wong Kiow, longtime teacher of Jss.
