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 ...

Book Review 1: EUREKA

Few years back, I was preparing my students for their examination which was to commence the subsequent week. I was supposed to go by the normal revision style-asking questions repeatedly and hoping they get the answers-which personally I realised it is not the best move. I realised some students rather than reading, they just cram the answers to the questions and on the exam day, they download it. That is if they can still recall. I also noticed some get bored with the question and answer section which occurs often. They find something to distract them and that leaves the teacher talking to just a few student whose attention is still fixed. Having considered this and many other factors, I had to devise a more fun revision strategy which I believe would arouse the interest of all my students. This gave rise to the TREASURE HUNT strategy which I beautifully captured in my book EUREKA. Eureka is a must have book for everyone who deals with impacting children. Just like the treasure hunt s...

MY TALENT, MY PRIDE( DISCOVER YOURSELF)

Bola,Tayo, Ayo amd Bimpe where very close friends. they are the type of kids every parents would always pray to have. Bola was a very talented singer, she sings like an angel and everyone adores her. Tayo too was a good dancer, he is so flexible that one would wonder if his body where made of foam. Ayo wasn't left out, he was so good with spellings, he could spell words those older than him would find difficult spelling. Bimpe felt like the odd one out,"why am i the one without a talent"she would always say to herself. whenever she went out with her friends for talents audition she would always feel left out because she has nothing to present. she would always cry her eyes out sometimes wishing she was her friends. she envied her friends talents and most times prayed to God to make her a singer, dancer or a good speller. when she saw her prayers have been ignored by God she started attending dance and music classes, she would always go to her friend Ayo to teach ...
