“Welcome Schoolers! It’s School Days Again. “ This remark coming from teachers are very inspiring for some children. Most of them are excited and eager to go to school. They are ready and prepared to learn everything with full of confidence and lots of willingness.
With a new environment, children are full of excitement to know who are their classmates, on what sections do they belong and who are their teachers? Children are very much inspired if their teachers are kind because it opens an opportunity to create a pupil – teacher good relationship.
Knowing children, they are most likely individuals who admired someone every time they perceived such impressive behavior coming from the person they look for. Some pupils idolized their teacher because of some reasons. First, for being intelligent or smart. The teacher must know how to handle his responsibility as a teacher academically and as a teacher to many pupils that need guidance, support and understanding in terms of interpersonal relationship. Second, for being fair to everyone. They give every pupil an equal opportunity to show their desire and talents for one’s achievement and success. Third, for being constructive and not destructive to their pupils. Show them the realization of being a pupil. Let them know that they will encounter some problems in terms of studies but tell them to take it positively and accept it as a challenge for the improvement of themselves. Fourth, for being a true person. Teachers are just human who commit mistakes, experience some frustration, feel stress because of many works and problems but still coping and doing good for the sake of their pupils. And lastly, for having faith in our God. Always remind the children that in every step they may do, always let God to be their guide for whatever result they may acquire. And don’t forget to thank him.
Those characteristics give pupils a wide impression that teachers are the best person to idolize.
