Well the kids want to pratice sports this summer so they will be ready for school sports when school starts. First sport at the begining of the year is volleyball so that is what we are practicing.
Geeezzzz I am so tired of explaining everything 12 times over. My kids are pretty good at coming up with excuses :roll: for doing it wrong after I just showed them how do it over and over again.
Some times when I hit the ball over to them they miss it because there to busy chatting or arguing about who should have got the last ball.
But we seem to be making progress because they are getting better. I sure don't know how teachers and coaches do this full time because I am ready to tie them up to the net pole and just leave :asshole:

I cannot teach myself how to play a guitar. I am glad a experinced guitarist teacher taught me how to play a guitar. Also I can't teach myself learn how to do some martial art moves and a group of experinced artists taught me how to do those moves for two years.
The point is that if you wanted to learn how to do some stuffs, always look up the people who have more experinced than you are. They would LOVE to teach you how to do that.
it is really so tough to teach kids to play propertly in sports. I know some kids will sccuessful but not all depend on indvivdual (sp) sorry for my poor spell don't mind me ok

hahah.. let me tell you something. I got first car after I got my license.. first... I told my dad.. I want porsche or camaro.. He go like :roll: too expensive.. plus my first car, he was afraid i just go -=-=zoom and go crazy.. so he found this cute car 1976 Vega.. with sticks.. I was like DAD! i dont know how to use sticks.. He said.. ok no car.. i will bring it back.. I said No wait.. teach me how.. it took me quite while to know how use sticks.. and its hard cuz i cant hear the gears to switch.. so my dad bought RMP and added on the dashboard.. so i can see the thingie on RMP .. which time to shift the gears.. it worked!!..
I was very careful and nervous to drive sticks on hills or car behind me.. afraid to bump them or get into accident.. so I was very good driver which make my dad's goal successed.. why? he know that sticks will slow my wildness in me.. LOL
Later.. my man have his car with sticks.. he thought i dont know how to drive.. it been long time.. so I remember how to do in the past.. and still love it.. my man love me more!! cuz i can drive around without him to have to drive cuz dont know how to drive sticks.. hehe!

Yes its not easy.... good example that I have 5 kids.. but for now 4 kids.. they are older than the young one.. 4 older ones.. always agure or fight over one little thing.. its hard to break them up.. whats more.. when i want them sit down and listen me to say something.. its hard.. whatever i tried to talk with them together.. they look around or say MOM what are we going to talk about.. are we grounded.. blah.. they just like jump in convulsion before i say something!! ahhh..
so.. KIDS are KIDS..
(wring myself)..
hehe
Ha ha ha...That does remind me of my time I was teaching a group of kids how to play baseball. They were all about 10 yrs old.
I was subbing for a real coach at that time.
Imagine this...I'm a pitcher trying to help a kid learn how to hit a ball. I throw a ball lightly and the kid misses. I keep on going until he misses about 10 times. I start getting frustrated so I walk up closer and throw the ball about 10 times again just so the kid can hit the ball and finally let the other kids to bat.
After I start getting full of it..I start telling my mom, who is sitting there watching (she actually helped me interpreter most of the times), that I'm getting tired. My mom would yell at that boy and say, "I bet you won't be able to hit the coach's ball and if you do I'll get you some ice cream!"
My next pitch...this boy hits the ball. That's what I learned from my mom as a 20 yrs old kid....A proper moviation of the kids would make them do anything.
Next pratice session with a different group of 12 yrs old kids. They all didn't like me because I was deaf...so I just gave them the ideas that they would get rewards if they work hard. We had a blast at chuck and cheese resturant after the pratice.
