𝟯𝗿𝗱 𝗣𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗼𝗱 - Communications class [New]

Mrs Swan (Communications teacher)

Now that everyone's settled down, I'll give you a briefing of this course (´･ᴗ･`)

Mrs Swan (Communications teacher)

It was introduced into the school's curriculum by Principal Kim because he realized that a majority of you rascals lack communication skills

Mrs Swan (Communications teacher)

We can't have you graduating from this prestigious institution without having something so basic

Mrs Swan (Communications teacher)

The art of exchanging information with others and forming meaningful bonds as a result of the information received is very underrated

Mrs Swan (Communications teacher)

Because we do it every day, people take it for granted

Mrs Swan (Communications teacher)

But luckily, this course has been designed to make you students understand the importance of healthy communication

Mrs Swan (Communications teacher)

And the benefits it brings you now and later on in life

Mrs Swan (Communications teacher)

Throughout the course, you will extensively learn about the values of honesty, patience, kindness, humility, empathy, respect, intuition and teamwork

Mrs Swan (Communications teacher)

And for you slackers who wait until finals week before cramming, I have some bad news for you

Mrs Swan (Communications teacher)

This is 100% a practical based course

Mrs Swan (Communications teacher)

Meaning that there might not even be a written exam—

On hearing that, the entire class bursts into cheers, catching Mrs Swan off guard.

"No final exam?!" 🙊

"OHHH YEAH!" 🗣️

"HALLELUJAH!!!" 🙌

"THANK YOU, MRS SWAN!!" 😩

"YAAAHOOOOO!!!" 🎉

"GOD BLESS COMMUNICATIONS CLASS!!" 🙏

The communications teacher sighs, pinching her nose bridge.

Mrs Swan (Communications teacher)

💭 These hopeless brats... (눈‸눈)

Mrs Swan (Communications teacher)

Can you see the importance of proper communication now?

Mrs Swan (Communications teacher)

If any of you knew the basics you wouldn't have cut me off like that

Mrs Swan (Communications teacher)

And seriously? Aren't you celebrating a little too early?

Mrs Swan (Communications teacher)

The absence of a final exam doesn't guarantee that you're going to pass the course anyway 💢

Mrs Swan suddenly glances at her wristwatch.

Mrs Swan (Communications teacher)

Anyway, that's it for the briefing

Mrs Swan (Communications teacher)

Here's what going to happen

Mrs Swan (Communications teacher)

You all will be evaluated based on the bonds you form with your partners

Mrs Swan (Communications teacher)

Partners that will be assigned to you now

She holds up a jotter pad.

And spends the next few minutes announcing the partner pairings.

Mrs Swan (Communications teacher)

And finally, we have Mister Mintz and Miss Ford

Milo (Ml)

‼️

Bianca (Fl)

👀

The entire class goes dead silent for a moment.

Until the whispers start pouring out.

"Bianca and that no face nerd?"

"Haha no way."

"Must be a different Mintz."

"He's the only Mintz in school though."

"Nah this is actually crazy."

"This pairing needs to be changed lol."

Mrs Swan (Communications teacher)

Shut your mouths and focus! 💢

Mrs Swan (Communications teacher)

Another word and you all are failing this course!

Mrs Swan (Communications teacher)

Don't test me!

"We're sorry, Mrs Swan..."

The class choruses.

Mrs Swan (Communications teacher)

*sighs* Moving on

Mrs Swan (Communications teacher)

In order to pass this course, you simply need to prove that you and your partner have effectively communicated throughout the semester

Bryce Hale (Milo's bully #1)

Pfft, is that all?

Bryce Hale (Milo's bully #1)

In that case, we can just tell each other everything at the end of the semester, right?

Mrs Swan (Communications teacher)

*glares at him*

Mrs Swan (Communications teacher)

That's where you're wrong, Mister Hale ❄

Mrs Swan (Communications teacher)

You don't get to 'chill' until the end of the semester before you're evaluated

Mrs Swan (Communications teacher)

This course has a weekly presentation where everyone shares one new and unique thing they've learned about their partner throughout the previous week

Mrs Swan (Communications teacher)

And it can't be something you make up on the spot

Mrs Swan (Communications teacher)

Each entry needs to be confirmed by the partners a day before the presentation in my office

Mrs Swan (Communications teacher)

Now does that satisfy your question, Mr Hale?

Mrs Swan (Communications teacher)

Bryce Hale (Milo's bully #1)

...Yes, Ma'am

Mrs Swan (Communications teacher)

Good 😊

Mrs Swan (Communications teacher)

Then see me in my office after the class 😡

Mrs Swan (Communications teacher)

You obviously need private lessons on how to keep silent and listen when your teacher is speaking

Mrs Swan (Communications teacher)

And I'll be happy to oblige

Bryce Hale (Milo's bully #1)

...Yes, Ma'am

Mrs Swan (Communications teacher)

Good 😊

Mrs Swan (Communications teacher)

Class dismissed
