FORMER TEACHER - Refueling the Teacher Car



·       The car uses Gas 95 which is available at all fueling stations.
·       Gas 95 pumps have green labels and sometimes say Benzin.
·       Do not make the mistake of putting diesel in the car. Diesel pumps have black labels.
·       If you are paying cash, you pump the fuel first, then go inside and pay.
·       The car has two trip clocks (Trip A and Trip B) which you can use to track your mileage.
·       Just above the steering column and below the small digital dashboard there are two buttons. When you press the one on the left is cycles through five displays. The odometer, Trip A, Trip B, and two fuel efficiency displays.
·       One fuel efficiency display notes how many liters the car consumes in order to go 100 kilometers. The teacher care uses approximately 5.3 liters per hundred kilometers. This means you should replace a liter of fuel in the car for every 20 kilometers you drive.
o   The actual fuel consumption is closer to 18.5 kilometers per liter so round up occasionally.
·       Press the left display button until you see either Trip A or Trip B. Then hold that button down to reset Trip A or Trip B to zero. You can now track how far you have driven and you will know how much fuel to put in before you return the car to the school.
·       The current price for Gas 95 is about 1.38 Euros per liter so a 60-kilometer drive will cost you three liters or approximately 4 – 4.20 euros.
·       Also, you may not see the fuel gauge adjust immediately after adding fuel. It will adjust after you have driven for a bit and you restart the car.
·       Petrol stations in Slovakia are set up for one-way traffic. Basically, if you pull into the station on your right side you are meant to enter the station in the direction of travel. If you enter a station by turning left make sure you choose the correct entrance.
·       The gas gauge in the Citron doesn’t always update immediately after you add petrol. Usually you need to drive for a while and restart the car once before you will see a change.

FORMER TEACHER - How Can I Help You?

Hello, My name is Jim. I was a teacher at the Kramar school from February - May 2019. During my time in Zlate Moravce I documented many things that I believe will help future teachers. I started this blog so that I can share this information. This blog is completely independent of the Kramar school. The information here was accurate when I was in Zlate Moravce. Some of the details may have changed but this information should still help you ask the right questions. If you are heading to  Jazykova Skola Kramar or another school in  Zlate Moravce, please feel free to contact me - especially if the school has told you not to contact me. My direct email is jleonard518@gmail.com. We can also arrange a WhatsApp call. Good Luck, Jim https://www.facebook.com/jskramar/

FORMER TEACHER - Leaving Early in June

For the past two years Peter has offered to have the native speakers leave before the end of June. The school is open until the last Thursday in June. This year the last day of school is Thursday, June 27th. Peter may want you to stay through the end of June next year. In 2019 he asked all three native speakers if they would like to skip the last two weeks. There's nothing wrong with departing early but you need to be aware of the possibility so that you can plan. Consider this when making your flight arrangements for the end of June.  Remember than if you leave early and opt to travel you will only be paid a half month's salary for June.  https://www.facebook.com/jskramar/
