Level 0
Out Of Character Info:
IGN (In Game Name): Sylvester_Kun (Was Sylvester_Luciel)
Previous Bans: None
Do you understand that most answers are found in the roleplay documents?: Yes, I do believe so.
Describe your activity on the server: Usually, I play from 3 to 9 PM (Pacific Standard Time), but because of school I might only have to play from 6 to 9 PM. On weekends (Excluding Sunday and including Friday) I can play ALL day/night.
Do you have TeamSpeak3?: No sorry, I only use discord. But if it is a requirement to have it then yea sure, I'll get teamspeak.
Do you have a microphone?: Well, I use the one that's built into the apple headphones, that's pretty much it.
List your current and past applications: I have had no other applications other than this one.
What is your motivation for applying?: In this other roleplay server, I would always create some type of character creations and I loved it because I had so many variations of types of people I could create. Now on this server, I could become a teacher and do fun events for everyone to enjoy! I also hope to help other who are interested in art to gain better skills and (As many artists want) to find their own styles!
Have you read the megathread for Teachers?: Yes, I have and it was longer than I thought!
Summarize your previous experience (both in general and teacher wise):
Student: To this day I would always get together with a group I know IRL and we would help each other with our drawings and sometimes we would get help from our local Art teacher on how to do certain things (ex. coloring, the positioning of objects, angles, and perspectives, etc.) and it was pretty great!
Teacher: In art class, I would be called up to the front to teach people about how to progress their art skills since I was a higher rank. Everyone liked it so I started an Art club with the art teacher supporting me throughout the way! Today the Art club goes on!
List the ranks of teachers, starting from the bottom leading to the top:
1st: Trainee
2nd: Newly Qualified Teacher (or) (NQT)
3rd: Qualified Teacher Learning and Skills (or) (QTLS)
4th: Head of Department (or) (HD)
Have you read & understood the megathread that is in Roleplay Documents > Teachers?: Yes, I have!
From your perspective as of right now, identify one thing you would change about the Teacher Group. Why would you change that?: Honestly I love the teachers on the server! But if I could change ONE thing it would have to be the amount of time the teachers would be on. I mean I'm waiting online for someone to come online and do an event that I could enjoy with my friends.
Knowledge:
Present to us your knowledge about Teachers in-game and out-of-game, what purpose to they serve, what salary they get. Include a paragraph about the way teachers teach, what they do in their spare time in general.: I wouldn't really count what I'm about to say as technical "Knowledge" but as a hunch on what I believe happens. So as a teacher their purpose would be teaching the students about the subject they signed up for, I mean isn't that a teacher's job? It's important for a teacher to support a student when they need it, whether they don't understand the lesson or can't process the way a thing works so that the can proceed and gain a good education. This goes for teachers OOC and in-game! Now moving onto the next subject, salary. The salary for a teacher in Japan is 200k-250k a month (on average).
Teachers that I have seen in the subject Art would be helping the students that would struggle with their work and guide them through the places that they have trouble in! Not to mention, tips for the way they could improve would be great and worth it in the long run! Now teachers don't have much spare time (in my opinion) because of the classwork and homework that they need to grade for the students. But if they did have any free time (such as on breaks or weekends) they would normally hang out with their friends and family! For example, a normal student might party at some friends house all night, but a teacher would gather with a bunch of friends and have a nice dinner and catch up with each other.
Why are teachers important to a SchoolRP server?: It's pretty obvious to me. Without a teacher, a school roleplay wouldn't be a school roleplay! It would feel incomplete and have a weird atmosphere in general!
Describe the ranking system of teachers:
Trainee (Trainee): As a Trainee, you are able to be a spectator to a class and may assist the teacher at times. This will aid you in the future as this shall get you used to being in a teaching environment and give you a better understanding of what you will do as a teacher while in class and out.
Newly Qualified Teacher (NQT): With the current state you are at now, you now have the ability to run a classroom with the approval of the HD and of course a few lesson plans.
Qualified Teacher Learning and Skills (QTLS): As a QTLS, you are now a certified teacher able to teach a class at any given moment in school hours!
Head of Department (HD): The HD is the Head of Department or the head of a certain subject. Their job is to create the lesson plans for that subject department and help train/guide the NQTs as well as the Trainees. HD is the highest teacher rank you can gain.
What lesson planning system does the school work on?: I believe the School works on the MoSCo system.
Character Knowledge:
Tell us everything you know about the character you will be playing in a few paragraphs. How does he look like? What makes him unique and different? What is his outlook on Students? What about the other teachers? What is his personality like? What is his plan for the future?
Mr.Sylvester contains beautiful black hair that just about reaches the top of his left eye but leaves his right eye open to see better. His skin is pretty pale and hairless, and his eyes are a deep brown (you could even call it "black" if he was far away...). His choice of clothes is what you would call "Sharp", it consists of a white collar, long-sleeved, button up shirt, a no sleeved gray vest, firm denim pants, and a pair of Vans sneakers. He's physically fit and stands to about 5'11 and likes to hang out with the other students as one of them! His personality consists of wacky and funny features you wouldn't find in normal teachers (ex. he can understand modern day students and help them with their problems). He thinks of every student as an individual, as a friend, he needs to help care for. As for the teachers, they're on ok terms. He knows they can take care of their own problems, but if they really need it then he would be glad to. Sylvester hopes to progress to help people with their talents whether it's art or not! He would be happy that he could help.
Scenarios:
You find a gang of delinquents in the hallway cursing and swearing, what do you do?: During this time in school, you have to be calm and collected. Approach them and address the situation of what's going on. Tell them about the consequences they might face soon. If it keeps up, send them to the principal and warn them to not to do it again.
No one in your class is listening to a word you say, what do you do?: Ask for the student's attention calmly and if they continue to talk, call the people who are talking out. If they still keep talking, grab a pointing stick and hit it against the wall and confront them giving them a detention.
When in a teacher lounge, how does your character act?: Act social and try to conversate with the teachers! See how they have been and how their day has been going with their classes and such.
Provide at least 5 detailed /me's of your character inside a classroom.:
/me grabs the nearest thing next to him and hits it against the wall to grab the student's attention.
/me takes art supplies from the cabinet, passing them out to the students.
/me returns to his desk continuing his work on grading the student's work.
/me comes around to pick up the student's projects they have been working on.
/me politely dismisses the student from the class, sending them to their next class.
Backstory:
Sylvester Luciel was born into a casual family in the Philippines as the youngest child, as his only brother was about 12 years older than himself. His father (Angel Luciel) worked a casual nine-to-five job as a carpenter and every time his dad would come home he would love to see him, his mother (Londone Luciel) always took care of him as she was the stay-at-home mother he loved and cared for. Sadly his brother passed as he was only 7 years old by suffering from Aspiration pneumonia and after that everything went downhill. Angel wasn't gaining enough money to support Sylvester, so in desperation, he took unknown money from a couple of loan sharks and he regrets it ever since. The next 2 years became years of pain and harassment... but there was only one person there who would be there when he needed them most. It was his Art teacher... She always took care of Sylvester and tended to his needs as he was able to tell her everything.
The family deaths and the crazy loan sharks, I mean literally everything wrong in his life. And what he found so different about her was that she could only hear his words and never judge him as she couldn't see what he was. Knowing about her illness, he became inspired to be a great artist like her. At 12 years, Sylvester got into junior high and he absolutely hated it because of how solitary he was back then. But as his art got around and rumors for him being the best artist in the school, many people started talking to him and became his friends. But for the last year there he had a main group by his side to help him by through junior high. It's really sad, he never saw them again as he moved and became a new transfer student in Japan. Standing strong at about 15 years old, he was a sophomore in high school still studying and practicing his art skills. His grades were average and soon he found a love in Literature as it brought a new side of him. He made little true friends but many acquaintances in line, and he didn't care he just needed people who were true to him. He took one year in Visual Arts and one at English Literature at a local college and seeing that he was much better at art, took about 4 years in a University to gain a Bachelors degree in Fine Arts. So now he has an application to work in Taketatsu High School.
