A story of my confused state

  2018, I moved to Ogun state and had to seek employment in a school within my vicinity. As a Lagos teacher, I was used to a vibrant class, swift answers and mushy acts by my students. So I resumed at my new work place with that fully charged energy. The first day got me confused. I was to teach the primary classes, I started my class and it was obvious these children were not following. They could neither understand what I was saying nor did they show any bit of interest. It was then I knew I had to start from the scratch. First, I had to create a connection. I wanted them to understand that I am first their friend. I needed to set the foundation that they can have both a friend and teacher in one. After that, I came down to their level. I made them feel and appreciate every little progress they made. I built up their interest in education. We worked together, applying several strategies I discovered and created, and within some month the growth was evident. Eureka is a book that ...

BE YOUR DECISION MAKER

last week i was in a BRT and when the pilot was about taking the normal route majority of the passengers opposed and told him to take a different route, and since we love the CUSTOMERS ARE ALWAYS RIGHT phrase he obliged.
we were so shocked to meet with a standstill traffic at the route the passengers suggested and after 30 minutes those passengers who suggested the change of route started insulting the driver and telling him that he doesn't know how to do his job well. they told him he ought to know the best route to take.
I felt pity for the driver who by pleasing his passengers got himself into a bigger mess.
This event actually taught me something

LESSONS
. The same people who made you change your mind would still throw stones at you for agreeing to their idea.

. Advises are not for you to take but to decide

. Customers aren't always right, they sometimes don't even know what they want

. Don't be bothered about pleasing anyone

. All that matters is that you are on the right part every-other person can hit their heads on the wall.

. This is life, bear it in mind that you are on your own. people/friends/family may actually show that they care but when the punishment/insults/trouble comes you just might have deal with it alone.

.People change so don't put a 100% trust on their words/judgement
. The more you love your decisions, the less you need others to love them.

. Don't let people make you feel bad for making a wrong decision, you can't always be right and the fact it was wrong means you are wiser to know that is a wrong decision next time.

. You don't need people to be happy with your decision, you are the one to live with it for the rest of you life so your happiness matters more.

. Learn to be your own boss or have people turn you around with their decisions.

. It isn't a bad thing taking advice from people but learn to sieve it before digesting.

. Don't be scared of making mistakes, they are there to make you not break you.

HOW TO COPE WITH SLOW LEARNERS

I remember my first experience with a slow learner. At first I thought he was just lazy but later I realised it wasn't laziness. He was always quite, doesn't answer questions in class and rarely relate with his peers. Within months of my stay in the school I started noticing some changes in my boy. He now attempts assignment and classwork given. He talks in class and now relates well with his classmates. The trick is to first make them feel safe in class rather than make your expectations a burden to them. Over the years I've had to teach slow Learners and it has been a wonderful experience. The link below is a podcast where I talked on how to cope with Slow Learners. It's a ten minutes audio that summarizes strategies you can put in place when you have a slow learner in class. If you have questions, I'll be glad to answer them. https://anchor.fm/MissDairo%20/episodes/How-to-cope-with-Slow-Learners-ef5bj4 Don't forget to leave a comment and share w...

Human growth depends on different organs and processes working together. A balanced diet of grains, fruits, vegetables, and proteins such, as milk, eggs, and meats, provides essential nutrients to all parts of the body so that every inch and pound gained is a healthy inch and pound.
