HOW TO STOP YOUR MOUTH FROM SMELLING Skip to main content

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 cove

HOW TO STOP YOUR MOUTH FROM SMELLING

I sat on the bed one early morning puzzled on why our mouths never cease to smell whenever we wake in the morning.
I mean even when you brush it 10 times the previous day you will still wake up to a smelly mouth.
Thou I also noticed the rate at which a mouth that get brushed once will smell isn't how the one that gets brushed twice daily would smell.

The more frequent we brush our teeth the less smelly it gets.
BUT THE FACT IS IT WOULD STILL SMELL.
WHY?
HOW CAN IT BE STOPPED
READ MORE

There is actually a way to stop your mouth from smelling the next day after a rigorous brushing today.

That's why we never stop brushing our teeth, no matter how clean our mouth is today we still brush it the next day.

So that means the only way to stop our mouth from smelling is to brush it daily. YEAH!!!!

You know I have met with some highly intellectual individuals and am surprised at their insatiable desire for knowledge.
Am like "Mr you've got it all, why want more?
Why read more?

It then occurred to me

Just like you can't get enough of brushing your teeth least you end up with a smelly mouth, you also can't get all the knowledge in the world.

No matter how intelligent you are, it doesn't matter the number of books you've read or how much knowledge you've gained.
THE MOMENT YOU DECIDE TO STOP BRUSHING YOUR BRAIN(Learning) YOU WILL STINK.
Did you say stink?
Yes dearie, I did.

We live in an ever developing world where the knowledge gained yesterday becomes a waste today.

To be relevant in this ever changing world you need to develop an insatiable desire for knowledge.
Hunger and thirst for more knowledge.
No man knows it all, no one is an island of knowledge.

Don't rely on the knowledge of a stove when the today's trend is the use of gas.

The moment you stop learning believing you know all, you become a foolish man in this world.
I hear of certain words and inventions and am like "as at yesterday this didn't exist"

If a man who died last year should come back to life,he would have to be taught several things before he can relate with our world of today.

Every today cones with mind blowing inventions, vast knowledge, millions of books which no one imagined would be in existence.

What are you learning today?
Develop an insatiable desire for knowledge
Hunger and thirst for more
Be relevant

THE OTHER SIDE

Am not here to talk an about the other room oh LOL😆😆 this one is about the other side. Please drop your comments, I would love to know how you feel about this post.    I was in church for the digging deep service, when the Preacher started teaching I noticed what he was saying didn't correspond with the digging deep study sheet I was given.  I checked the date of the sheet and it was 18th of October 2016 and the date for that day was 11th. I noticed the congregation didn't look confused like I was so I thought of calling the attention of the usher.  Before I could get the attention of the ushers I decided to turn the other side of the sheet and there it was 11th October 2016 the topic for that day. NOTE: Before I realized the topic been preached was on the other side, the preacher was almost through with the teaching. This singular event opened my eyes to amazing life lessons I would be sharing here. 1) Majority of us have been believing God for a particular blessin

CONDUCTOR'S SECRET

Y e sterday i boarded a bus to work and the conductor taught me a very important life lesson.  When i entered i was the only one in the bus and there were several buses there calling out for passengers but this conductor of the bus i entered did something i loved. He went across the road and started calling for passengers, he assisted some in crossing the road and he carried luggage of others. He also had to persuade some that his bus was going to move immediately they entered and before the twinkle of an eye the bus was filled while other buses were still there. After some passengers dropped he had to call for more passengers, the first two passengers offered to pay less which was ridiculous.  He refused to carry them and the bus moved to another location, getting there he picked passengers who paid exactly what he called.  It got me thinking thank God he didn't to carry those who offered to less.

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
