Teachers

Malaysia's Teacher's Day falls on May 16th while the World's Teacher's Day falls on October 5th. I'm neither too late nor early to wish all teachers a wonderful Happy Teacher's Day. I hereby thank you my number 1 teacher of all time that helped me grew up through my years in school.

Mr. Nojip : For teaching me History during my form 3 and form 5 years. Despite how loathsome the subject was, I still strive hard to pay my slightest and most minute attention during your lessons [ other than doing other homework secretly ]. Somehow you tend to alleviate the hatred towards History in me and I seemed to begin to study it for the sake of studying it. It obviously requires heaps of willpower to motivate me in history. Then again, you never wrote my name in correct spelling since you have a son with a similar name like mine but written as 'Hensley'. Clear enough my name was corrected with liquid paper throughout all these years. Not forgetting, you drilled me in art as well during my form 5 years especially when there wasn't much art teachers available to teach us art. You're more than a teacher, but also a motivator and a friend.

Another amazing thing occurred last Saturday, my students.. Yes! My primary school students since I'm currently a part-time tuition teacher, made me Teacher's day cards and decorated the white board with kid's doodling to wish me Happy Teacher's Day. That's rather sweet and thoughtful of them.

There was this adorable little primary 2 boy whom I really find him nice, he asked me.." Teacher, will you be teaching us till next year or until primary 6 ? " I answered him " No, I'll be quitting within this year then another teacher will replace me. " He then answered " Awwhh, then I want to quit this tuition too if you're not here. " That reply made me so touched. Never knew that a teacher's job can be so fruitful and meaningful. ^ ^
