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 ...

MY TALENT,MY PRIDE (ENVY)

now another enemy of talents is ENVY ENVY is the desire to have a quality, possession, or other desirable thing belonging to (someone else).  like i said in my previews post the devil is  tricky in his acts, he wouldnt do things direactly so that he wont be suspected easily. the devil knows that when you're envious of your friends talents,you would disregard your own and try to learn their own talents. now how does he do this, am going to show you an example of a devil's to-do list make her feel inferior make her jealous of her friends talents make her hate and despise hers make her want to be like her friend  finally she forgets who she really is the moment you start feeling inferior because you think your friends are better than you, you give way to envy. and once envy sets in you start feeling the urge to want to be like him/her and once you start wanting  to be like them you totally forget who you are and your reason for existence, you start livi...

MY TALENT,MY PRIDE (MASTURBATION 2)

yesterday we on masturbation as one of the tools the devil uses to destroy the talents of children/teenagers. now the good news is IT CAN BE STOPPED yeah it can actually be stopped, forget the lie of the devil that says once you've started you can stop it.  now am going to be discussing below how you can successfully stop the habit of masturbating. 1) ACKNOWLEDGE THAT IT IS BAD: wondering why this is my first point, yeah the first step towards stopping any bad habit is for you to acknowledge that it is bad.  no one wants to stop a good habit so if you're still of the opinion that there's nothing bad about masturbation then am so sorry because you would find it difficult leaving that habit. so my dear friends you have to believe that masturbation is a very bad habit and also an act of the devil towards destroying young talents. once this is achieved am happy to tell you that you are on your way to been free. 2) HAVE A MIND SET TO STOP IT: yes, knowing and accepting that ...

MY TALENT, MY PRIDE(MASTURBATION)

we discussed self esteem in my previous post now as per my discussion we would be considering the dangers of low self esteem there  are so many sins which the devil has packaged alongside low self esteem whereby the moment you give room for low self esteem every other sins rolls in; 1. Masturbation 2. Envy 3. stealing 4. Murder 5. sexual immorality 6. depression e.t.c MASTURBATION we would be considering one of the sins called masturbation, which is one of the products of low self esteem. masturbation is the act of touching one's private parts with the use of the hand or any-other sex object so as to derive pleasure. masturbation is one of the devilish tools used by the devil to draw souls to his kingdom, he tells you it isn't wrong because you are the one doing the touching and not someone else.  when the bible was talking about virginity until marriage,it isn't only talking about not having sex. when you touch your private parts you have lost your virginity a...

MY TALENT, MY PRIDE ( LOW SELF ESTEEM)

We have recently been talking about how to believe in yourself, following the right path and doing the right thing. now today we are going to begin the study on the enemies of talents the first enemy am going to be discussing about is low self esteem LOW SELF ESTEEM: this is one of the problems facing our children today and it is a great obstacle of using your talent effectively. it makes you feel you're not worth it. it makes you feel you're below others.  you see your mates and rather than converse with them you feel inferior, you feel they are better, finer, wealthier or more lucky than you, and even most-times you so much pray and wish you where them. The thing here is this is the devils own way of leading you into committing different sins all because you feel you are less than others.  you are created in your own special way, our Lord God said that before we were born he knew everything about us, he says the thought he has for us are for good and not evil to bri...

MY TALENT, MY PRIDE( BELIEVE IN YOURSELF)

Long ago in a certain village lived a little damsel by name Loretta, she lived with her parents and two siblings. Loretta lived in a world of her own, she sees her self doing things that she doesn't understand and most times wondered why she does them, she was tagged useless by her parents and the whole villagers. Loretta was never ever bothered by what her parents or anyone says about her but thou she still wishes she would stop those act of hers. in school she was always at the bottom of the class, she doesn't seem to understand what was been thought in class but always tries as much as possible to read.  Everyday she would say to herself "with God by my side i can make it" she never ceased encouraging herself despite the rebuke she got from all around her. she believed in the saying SMILERS NEVER LOSE so she made sure she was found smiling at all time. Few years later Loretta graduated from secondary school and was seeking admission to the university, ...

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 ...

HOW I LOST MY JOB

HOW I LOST MY JOB (2016) The company's new managing director called me into his office. MD: Titi I'm very sure you're aware of the financial setback this company is facing and right now all hands ought to be on deck towards restructuring the company. Me: Yes Sir MD: Right now I need people that can get me ten million naira per month through marketing and the way I'm seeing you, you can't befriend those men that can put money into this business. Or can you? Me: No Sir MD: Well, I need those who can go to any length to get me that money. In that case your service is no longer needed here... I couldn't get another job for months until February when I got the teaching job, I was told I'm going to be paid an amount which is my previous salary divided by 3.

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...
