Y.S: Just 1week?
Januel: Yes, because we are already very much familiar with the program and the system that we have here in GEO.
3. How were you matched with your professor?
-I’m not really sure. Maybe Professor Corien decides on that and she just sends an e-mail to us to inform whose going to be the professor that we will be assisting.
4. What does TA do?
-A lot. But it’s more on administrative job like keeping files, preparation for the different activities, etc..
5. What kind of student do you like?
Y.S: Like me?
Januel: No! You’re always late and sleeping in the class! Um...Hard working and attentive students, those who are very much eager to learn.
6. Are you happy to give yellow cards?

- I want students to learn and improve their English speaking skills.
9. What do you want to change in GEO?
Januel : I want Yosep to stop being late.
Y.S : What??
Januel : Just joking. GEO Program has already improved a lot but the non-CUK students in GEO now are requesting to live with the Filipino TAs during their stay in the dormitory. That's possible and I want that to happen in the future.
