Kakinada Express

She is the fastest, yet so accurate, simply brilliant! The kingdom she drives through is rough and full of difficulties. But, she never diverges from her path nor lessens her speed, no matter what. Some experienced passengers enjoy her speed, most are sick of it.

This is our math class. Our math teacher has a sharp mind and sharper than that is her pride. She never waits for any students to complete the solution to her questions. She drives on with full pace, whistling time and again "chesaraaa, ChEsArA, (meaning 'completed?' in Telugu, however, she doesn't need an answer for this question)" and sometimes she whistles as "nexta methode". If you show any confusion or have a question, she will just come to your desk and write the solution in your notebook, nothing less, nothing more.

Why she does this? Maybe because she is an amateur teacher, her frequently using Telugu words (in a class where there are 20% international students) shows. Or maybe the majority of students, the Andhra people, know the contents already since it was in their grade 12 syllabus. But Hello Madam Express, there are new passengers, the Nepali & Srilankan, & Bangladeshi people. Please guide us properly through to the semester final!!
