Being a teacher really is tiring. Although others might say a freshman like me should be energetic and active, I would like to rebut. I am SERIOUSLY torn between the duty of being a teacher who is fundamentally asked to teach or a running-errands-staff. Which is which? Despite fulfilling the responsibility to school and being nice to others, my work ethic is slowly changing and my principle of teaching is slowly adapted to my current working situation. There is no more time for me to sit and prepare cool stuffs or even materials for my kids. Poor them. Not to mention, I don't even have the energy to flip through a page of the novels that I just purchased, which I am dying to read them. Running errands like taking care of students from morning till they sleep at night really is exhausting but I believe that every good deeds will be paid with good rewards from HIM. I hope I will not loose the momentum when I was first posted here and I do pray Allah can ease all the dealings that my students will encounter in here and thereafter. Good Luck "kidddoss"
dear cikgu bi,
ReplyDeletewelcome to elt :) i think it's a matter of sitting down and prioritising what you need to do..some things are important but not urgent. make a list. best!
Salam kak Rahmah, i just noticed your comment this afternoon. Thanks for your feedback. I know the first few steps in the profession could be tough and sometimes turn into haywire. However, regardless of tiring my work is, i do really enjoy whenever I see my kids having fun in class. It's a bless i think.
