back again
alright, i'm back. with more updates to catch up with and even more stories to tell. ;)
wow, it's been like months i have forgotten about the existence of my blog. it's great to actually come back and finally have the opportunity to review myself after quite a while. Things are rather more stable now that i have started teaching.
i have felt the taste of being a teacher for about a month or so now, teaching art to secondary school students. i must say that it has been very fulfilling simply because i have a favourite spot for teaching. everyday is different which i never get bored getting into class. students are unique individually and that answers the question of why teaching can sometimes be a killer.
one month of being an art teacher gave me enough time to figure out about myself as a teacher. i often wonder what kind of teacher is perfect for these students. after observing the different styles of teaching by various teachers, i find that most of them use anger and authority to gain respect of the students.
it is true that the best gift a teacher could offer is by distinguishing himself as a teacher and not a friend to his students. one teacher told me teaching is just like acting. One moment you can be whacking them like nobody's business, another moment you be their bestest friend.
many things are being learnt and still more to be learnt. i pray that this path is the one that can bring the best out of my life so that i can be a better person Here as well as Hereafter.
