FACTORS IN MAKING A GOOD & BAD TEACHER: A STUDENT’S PERSPECTIVE

                    Diversity is normal among us. In this embedded diversity, we have our own perceptions of people. For students, it is normal for them to create standards in determining if a teacher is a good or bad teacher. A good teacher is an effective educator while a bad one put his students at stake.   The following are some of the factors of what I think make a teacher good—or even great—guided by the acronym TEACH.     1.       TIMELY . A good teacher is punctual. He does things or he occurs at a needed or useful time. He should be fitting and carries convenience. He recognizes time’s usefulness and he refrains from delaying his job. He prepares his lessons early and relay it to the students within the appropriate schedule. He avoids being late in his every class but sometimes he will dismiss few minutes earlier the officiated ...

A SAMPLE LETTER FOR A FRIEND

Dear Jo,            I want to use this opportunity to give my sincere greetings to you. I would also want to express my feelings as a friend, or since the day of the mark of our friendship… It’s still vivid the times when we’re still on our second year in high school. That period was the days of the most heated friendship we had. In our every conversation, I always enjoy when you share your personal life events even though we’re not the same in gender. Sometimes, you cried, you laughed, everyday different. You trusted me. That’s what I’m very thankful to you. I had patience in conversation only with you and I can’t say no one had ever had the guts to talk to me within long hours except you even though I only replied through nods. You were the only one whom I tried to befriend without stumbling. I am certain that I am being hated by no one but when people approach me, it’s very unique and in neutral way, it’s special. But I understand them b...

Dilemmas and Rewards of Taking Care of Cats

          “Because you’re stubborn,” I replied.           And you really are. I couldn’t control myself to be mad. Since in the first place and time, I am very good to you. I adopted you, I fed you. If you just wanted to take a bath, I douche you surely.           However, you changed gradually. You ate all the food I served you then but after all of those good times, you refused all even your favorite fish and meal. They said, if you touch me with your tail while I am eating, you are trying to say that we are family for you. But I am in doubt. Why do you only touch me in the dining table? Are you a food digger? And why do you take for granted the affection I am showing for you?           I think you are also natural dementia patient because you keep on forgetting me just after 24 hours we didn’t s...

#FOREVER

If I will be given a chance, To prove and lead their ignorance, What is the best act to be done, Go, live in the scorching sun? The branches grouped out the furnace, Will be sowed and saw in the surface, The twigs fall which make the bell rings, Cannot make their lives live with sings. Your man and woman on the land, As well as kinsmen, dwell with them, As a brother, do the alter, As a sister, don’t go under. Singing with no reminiscence, Triumphs and fails has no presence, Not aware of your barrenness, Yet, you produce own happiness. © 2017
