Happy because of them

 

What a happy day for me.

After my lesson today, one of the girls in my class told me “You really make the lesson so interesting”.

I am humbled by her feedback.   The power of students to make the teacher feel inspired can sometimes be more than what a teacher can do to empower her students.

I feel thankful to this student. I also want to thank the rest of her classmates who were really attentive and courteous to me throughout the three weeks of lessons I had with them.   Many of them came up to say ‘Thank you teacher” after each lesson, something I never experienced in my 14 years of teaching so far!

Indeed, I feel inspired by this ‘Z-generation’ of youths.
