BEING A TEACHER....

BEING A TEACHER IS A DIFFICULT TASK NOWADAYS, SO I DECIDED TO FOLLOW THIS PIECE OF ADVICE BY BRUCE LEE:

Empty your mind, be formless. Shapeless, like water. If you put water into a cup, it becomes the cup. You put water into a bottle and it becomes the bottle. You put it in a teapot it becomes the teapot. Now, water can flow or it can crash. Be water, my friend.

No need to shoot off when the class is finishing!!!

 

 

Students, teenagers... deserve attention, respect!!! Yes, they also have to give something back, that is to say, they have to show respect, pay attention... to their teachers, elderly people and even their peers!!!!

When the music or bell rings is just a kind of signal for the person speaking that he must come to an end with his explanations or whatever. What would students think if the teacher left the classroom as soon as the bell rings or the music starts when doing an exam?? 

So there's no need to shoot off when your teacher is finishing, or maybe one day YOU WILL BE SHOT!!!😠😠😠😠😠😡😡😡😡
