The students I'm teaching age from 18 and up. And all of them are very respectfull, nice and seem to listen to what we say and do, and most of them seems to enjoying learning.

Parents were horrid when they either didn't respect my subject (Art) or thought they knew more than I what should be taught (Comp Sci) and administrators were impossible... I don't miss the Admins or the Parents and possibly 10% of the kids!
Luckily I don't have to deal with parents since they are all adults (in age) ;) And I am glad I don't have to deal with that. I am a very patient man, but everyone has their limits when it comes to patience.

Our classes are divided up into 6 work hours ranging from 45-50 minutes. It was really hot in the classroom as the AC didn't work and there are 50+ computers on at all times. I am teaching computers too. Ranging from total beginners, to creating advanced Excel and Access databases.

Yeah I do got it made. All the planning is already done. There are 4 classrooms and we are 8 teachers in total. The managers do the planning based on how many students there are and their level of computer knowledge. So I really can't complain :)
