Up to now I have been having anxiety attacks about the evaluations I receive from students. I am an American and lecture in a women's university in Seoul, Korea.

Thsi semester I am teaching 2 oral communication classes (10 students and 11 students) A Public speaking class (20 students) and a reading and writing class (18 students). For midterm evaluation my students gave me the following scores:

Communication Class (90) Good score
Communication Class (74) Not Good
Public Speaking (97.1) Excellent
Reading and Writing (97.1) Excellent

Overall score 89.16 so so


I received very good, uplifting comments in 3 of the classes, but in the one communication class had 5 negative comments and one in particular hurt. "Robert is very, very strange, I do not know why you hired him, he is not qualified to be a teacher." Ooooouch!!!!!!! These evals are done anonymously.

I spent hours focused on that painful statement.

Now we are finishing and the end of semester evaluations will be coming out. I know I will do well again in my big classes, but I am not sure about the 2 smaller classes.

On our evaluation reports the University shows the average score and your own score. I was a bit below average before.

I love teaching and amongst the Native Speakers am the most qualified in experience and in having an MA TESOL.


How do I not get apprehensive, nor negatively affected by these things?

In the first eval they had not seen their grades yet.


Also, this has been a 6 week Intensive. We work morning, noon and night, we do activities with the students and take care of our homeroom. My homeroom is my Reading and Writing Class. I


The system is very competitive and if you do too bad they give you a Letter of Warning and then a dismissal. Currently, I am one of the longest teachers here (Just signed my 4th year contract) I have never received such a letter, others have. But I
love my students and some of these comments can be so hurtful.


Also, I am 3, one of the oldest teachers and it is a Women's University and students have told me that they like the younger teachers. In fact, the administration has told me that.

How do I make my mind right in this situation??

My goal is to consistently get evaluations with a 95 overall.

I do love this University as it has good standards and more motivated students than in other universities I have heard of.

Thank you for reading this
