After the training, me and the other trainees got an account to enter the Darka ecosystem. Obviously, the email we have has a suffix @darka.com. It made me feel like I was a part of this family. The next step I do when I log into the system is to start booking class demo.
Because every month there is a minimum of teaching hours, I must be diligent in teaching every day. I teach every day for 8 hours. I will successfully complete the minimum ration on day 24. Teaching without any holidays.
If you think about it continuously, maybe I will only feel tired when I feel I have to meet the teaching hours. This is what made me decide to enjoy every moment. But if I want a month earlier off, I can work more than 8 hours a day, so that before the 24th can have a quick holiday.
Last information said I could log in to the teacher dashboard then book a demo slot there. The time can adjust to the time we can teach. Of course, I have also opened a schedule I can teach for students who will be paid. Because if the teaching slot is not opened, later paid students will not be able to choose a schedule for their coding lessons.
Within Darka, disciples were divided into two categories. Demo student and paid student. Demo students are students who only follow the trial class. The schedule adapts to the schedule of the availability demo that we have made.
Paid students are different from demo students. They were students who had already finished the trial class and wanted to continue the materials to an even higher level. That's why their schedule is different from the availability demo. Paid classes filled by paid students are determined by the student himself. They can only fill a class one or more times a week. There are also those who fill it 3 times a week. The Pokemon likes them.
Because of this, actually the paid student who makes the activity schedule becomes ambiguous. As teachers, we cannot be that easy to cancel a paid class. Each teacher only gets a small amount of paid class. Usually we ask the parents of students to cancel the class if we suddenly can not take the class.
But it is not often done, because later they can ask how our professionalism as teachers. Must be smart in maintaining the relationship between us, students paid, with his parents. I guess that's my job as a coding teacher in Darka. Good communication and teaching skills are key to success as a coding teacher in Darka.
For now, I still can't book a demo class. Because the menu containing the demo avaibility is still locked. According to the info I get, I have to meet with the lead team first before I can book a demo class.
Each teacher in the darka is divided into several groups led by a team lead (TL). TL is what we will contact later if there are managerial and academic problems in the teaching process in Darka. I wonder, what kind of TL will I get?
[Good morning, with Ray yes. I'm Steven, Team Lead from Darka. Can you meet soon?]
I got a message from steven. I immediately replied to this man's message. Judging from the time, it looks like there will be a meeting at night with another coding teacher. Most likely, the teacher who had previously taken up training along with me several would also be present due to being in the same team.
In demo classes, teachers are prohibited from teaching material outside the prepared material. But during the demo class training, I also heard he had to give as much material as possible so that students are interested in conversion and becoming paid students. This information that is contrary makes me confused. Maybe I'll decide to take the middle ground. Teaching according to the material but can add material that is still relevant to the interests and talents of children.
The next day, finally my meeting with TL happened. As usual, we conduct meetings with online media through the application. Surely I make sure the condition of the mic device and camera works perfectly.
[Good night, guys. My name is Steven. Your Team Lead for Darka. For tonight, let's introduce you first]
All the participants there introduced themselves one by one. I was also one of the people who introduced myself. Finished getting acquainted, steven began to explain how Darka's performance was deeper. Because previously in training we were only told the ideal conditions in the teaching process. This Steven explains in more detail and special cases that have occurred in Darka.
Even mas Steven also said that in fact the material does not need to follow very much with what was given by Darka. Because Steven's team is getting special. This is because data-wise, students will not convert with the material that Darka provides. While Steven mas group managed to get a lot of conversion students with their method. This discussion is very interesting, it turns out that even in foreign startup companies, internal conflicts like this still exist. I decided to follow Steven's decision. Since he is a TL and as long as it is beneficial for the work in Darka, I will not reject the policies he provides.
Finished giving an explanation, Steven man gives an opportunity for other friends to do a question and answer. Lots of questions were given and everything was answered well by Steven. I mostly just listen to their conversations. I got a lot of information from this meeting.
[Alright, so as not to be too late. My meeting closed here. Maybe tomorrow, after the end of this meeting. You can all book classes and start teaching demo classes. Hopefully you can get paid students soon and get double digit students. Because the bonus awaits those of you who succeed in doing so]
The meeting was completed after Steven exited the online meeting room. I also got out of the virtual meeting and started to take note of the important things that were there from the meeting. From the meeting just now, I can only judge that Steven mas looks like a capable leader. At the very least, I did not feel the ilfil like when I was dealing with mister Tian. The person who made me uncomfortable while working in Elektronik Jaya first.
Steven looks like a winner. He is also a mature skin and looks young. Hopefully, my assessment of this one TL is right. Because the mood to work is strongly influenced by the work environment. Neither from the other staff nor from the boss himself. A good work environment will improve the performance of employees and will ultimately generate profits for the company as well.
‘Hopefully, tomorrow I can teach the demo well and correctly’ My words in heart before I go to sleep and go to the dream world
