Teachers....


It would take some effort in appreciating teachers. This is maybe due to a change of teachers as we change grades every year. Also we sometimes give importance to grades we get rather than the person responsible in evaluating our grades.

We later recognize that what are our perception or outlook in life much of these comes from what we learn from classrooms. Such realization then would we recognize the efforts done to us by our teachers.

Teachers are responded as second parents to children. They are responsible in molding the minds of the youth. This is an area where a teacher should take extra effort to show that they care. This is where they can exercise parental responsibility to the students entrusted to them.

The task given to teachers in not just limited in giving information or knowledge but rather goes beyond simple teaching. Their ability specially on matters of child psychology is one that a teacher should master.

But aside from equiping themselves with such capabilities a teacher should also love their profession. It is the area where teachers gathers their energy to teach deligently. Teachers who love their work can make a big difference in transforming the lives of those they teach.

Somehow the efforts our teachers extends to students are not given much recognition. Appreciation of one's effort is very necessary. For teachers, they must be responded with much respect. Although respect is to be earned rather than demanded due courtesy should be afforded to teachers.

Teachers appreciation could be shown through thoughtfulness. This has something to do with one's seriousness in studying a subject given by teachers. It is pleasurable for teachers to know that students learn with ease and joy about the subject they are studying.

Giving thanks to teachers effort is another way of appreciating teacher's hardwork. However only few have the time to express thanks to teachers and instructors. Very few however have realized the satisfaction a teacher would feel if they learn that their students have finished their courses and are successful in their chosen field of discipline.
