You truly deserve all the admiration and love the students have for you, because you're beautiful inside and out. So how could it be any other way?!<BR/>Wishing you all the best, always!<BR/>Beijinhos, TeresinhaTeresa Almeida d'Eçahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02862453387335152719noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23087183.post-82222160350724838872007-06-06T16:28:00.000+03:002007-06-06T16:28:00.000+03:00Dear Hala,You are so involved and committed to you...Dear Hala,<BR/><BR/>You are so involved and committed to your task. That makes students focus on whatever learning challenge there is ahead of them. It's true, it's hard to say one "teaches" them the things they say they learn from us. However, the attitude to learning has been modeled by the teacher.<BR/><BR/>To teach is to touch a life forever they say...

I am so sad to see how it makes the students sad, depressed, unmotivated not to say embittered and indifferent.<BR/><BR/>You know I found the book quite recently while preparing for my uni classes and decided that we should by all means read at least something from it together with the students. This book is <BR/><BR/>Craftsmanship in Teaching<BR/>by William Chandler Bagley<BR/><BR/>Just one statement of many that I liked:<BR/> <BR/>"But the cynic forgets that there are some people who never lose their<BR/>illusions,--some men and women who are always young,--and, whatever may<BR/>be the type of men and women that other callings and professions desire<BR/>to enroll in their service, this is the type that education needs."<BR/><BR/>And also when we were finishing the topic "Schooling. Education" we watched a very instructive film - "The Emperor's Club". Really the film to watch to see what a Real Teacher should be like.<BR/><BR/>Thank you much indeed for sharing you ideas. It's such a comfort to know there are people who care and never lose illusions!<BR/>Warmly,<BR/> ElenaElena Nikolaenkohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17859899681192929269noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23087183.post-73033415922790842662007-06-05T23:59:00.000+03:002007-06-05T23:59:00.000+03:00Dearest Hala,Thank you for sharing your wonderful ...Dearest Hala,<BR/>Thank you for sharing your wonderful blog.

Caring crosses all barriers (age, religion, race, etc). The student will then, in turn (and in time) become a caring person. <BR/><BR/>Thank you for caring about your students, you help to make the world a better place. <BR/><BR/>Beijinhos from Portugal,<BR/><BR/>Ramonarddietrichhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06806363655944301222noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23087183.post-15518863974211506152007-06-05T17:02:00.000+03:002007-06-05T17:02:00.000+03:00Dear HalaI'm so glad Cris let the cat out of the b...Dear Hala<BR/>I'm so glad Cris let the cat out of the bag.<BR/>I think you speak from many people's hearts. It is this feeling of having made some small difference to another person's life that is one of the most touching and gratifying feelings.

And I think they keep telling they are bored, and stuff, but they don't really like a teacher who doesn't care. They want to learn. And they want to grow up. And I believe that's the greatest purpose of education - making students skillfull and wise.<BR/>Love your blog.<BR/>Best regards<BR/>Paula FerreiraAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23087183.post-83543215868657378132007-06-05T12:34:00.000+03:002007-06-05T12:34:00.000+03:00Dear Hala, do you know why they care so much?
