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 ...

Why is God so wicked?

#LengthyPost Today I was thinking about all my years on earth and lessons I've learnt. I remembered the day I wholeheartedly prayed to for death. I so wanted to die since I found every second of my stay on earth useless. Now a thought popped up in my mind " what if God answers all prayers" That means I would have been long forgotten. We often ask "Why didn't God answer my prayers?" "why did He let this happen?" Is God a wicked God?. Why does He turn deaf ears sometimes to our pleas I watched a movie yesterday. A young man bore bitter feeling of resentment toward God just because he prayed to God to save his father and yet he died. A priest told him God is just like our parents. They love and care for you yet they don't give you everything you ask for. Not because they don't have it but because they see what you don't see. I remember as a child I had at one point disliked my parents because I felt they didn't do thing...

SELF LOVE

From the creation story in Gen 1:26, we learnt God created man in his own image and likeness, no wonder the bible says in Ps 82:6 that "I have said, ye are gods; and all of you are children of the most high". On the 9th April in church the word SELF LOVE was dropped in my spirit and after meditating on it I got some revelation about it. Rom 5:8 "But God shows his Love for us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us", have you ever pondered on why God instructed Christ to die for us because of our sins. Why did he still love us despite our wicked ways. That was SELF LOVE in action, when God looks at us he sees Himself because he created us in his image and likeness. Despite our sins, He couldn't bring himself to hate us because he keeps seeing himself in us, no wonder he had to sacrifice his only begotten son for our sake. Eph 5:25 "Husbands, love your wives, as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her". The church isn...

IF IT'S ABOUT A CHILD, TALK TO ME

As parents to get the best from our kids starts from us, same goes to teachers. We are all gearing towards making the world a better place and our kids are the ones to make that change but it all depends on how we train them today. Parents, teachers and guardian need to be enlightened and counselled on how to get the best from these kids. The world is changing and so are our kids. All kids are different and thus require different approach but we make the mistake of generalizing the advice and punishment given to them. Want to get the best of your child? Having issues and want a way out? Want to know how best to relate with that child? Want to know what works best? Do you feel your kid doesn't take to correction? Why do kids do what they do? Why do they act that way? What do they want from you? Meet me, Dairo Titilope Blessing (JesusTibab, Miss Dairo) kid's best friend. I have got 98%( still counting) of the solutions and answer you need. WHY YOU SHOULD CONSULT ME 1 I run an ini...

EVEN IF YOUR FEET IS IN IT, YOUR HEAD MUST BE ABOVE IT

Mystery has always been an essential quality of  life. Sometimes,it's the bedrock of things beyond our field of vision or our scope of comprehension. What inspired me to write this is an interview I heard on the radio. Truly,if you can think it,then you can do/be it. The interviewee was a man who had some defects. He's deaf and can't speak well. Despite this,he knows whatever people are saying. You'd wondering how he does this. He lip- reads,that is,looking at the movements of the mouth in order to be able to fathom out what the person is saying. This,to me,is intriguing. Now,to the main quality the man has-I call it an inventor's brain. During the interview,I got to know that the man actually made a DVD player by himself using the local materials at his disposal. Before he did this,he went to learn how to repair electronic appliances for three months. The DVD player works well and he sells it for 3,000 naira. Then,he stopped selling it be...

MINDSET MAKEOVER

Crying Anthony has been knocking on the gate for the past 20 minutes, I asked him why he was crying and he told me the gate was locked and no one has answered him since he was knocking. I also tried pushing the gate severally but it was futile so I started knocking. After knocking for about 5 minutes a lady inside asked what I wanted and I told her Anthony needs to go in but the hate was locked. She told me the gate wasn't locked, on hearing that I pushed the gate and it opened immediately. I was stunned, this is the same gate I pushed 5 minutes ago why didn't it open then. It then dawn on me that my mindset was at fault. The first attempt, I pushed the gate with a mindset that it was locked and that was the result I got. On the second attempt I pushed the gate with a mindset that it was open and it turned out that way. I also noticed, the energy I put into use when pushing it the first time was less than the energy on the second attempt. If you were told that the busi...

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...

EXPLANATION OF THE PARABLE The parable above is just exactly what happened when we all were been sent to the world. We were given talents which we ought to trade with here on earth ...

UNDERSTANDING the way to PERFECTION

Perfect sontin!!! I want a perfect job, husband,wife, boyfriend,girlfriend, I want to be perfect. These are demands we make daily. You can't get a perfect sontin, job, husband, wife, boyfriend, girlfriend... These are answers we get when we ask for the above. What exactly is perfection? Though the dictionary defined it as without fault, weakness, to be complete, exact and correct But in the actual sense understanding comes before perfection There is actually no perfect human on earth, but there perfect humans on earth if understanding is placed first. Perfection to me is "knowing the fault, weakness, lack... Of a person, thing, job or yourself, understanding it is already a part of them and deciding those you can change and those that can't be changed, then seeing the person, thing, job or yourself as perfect. For someone or something to be perfect You must have listed out their weakness and faults. Note those you can change and work on them Note those you can...
