Reflection on Teaching

Teaching kids is an exercise in patience and love. My classes are mostly formed of kids who are slower in learning, so I have to learn how to teach differently from the way i teach K. We're so blessed that K is a quick learner and that he has a pretty good attention span in comparison to many of his peers.

I feel teaching has taught me to greater appreciate my Heavenly Daddy's love. Imagine the patience He has to exercise whilst handling us slow learners! :) Everyday we tend to make the same silly mistakes- losing our temper over small things, letting fear strike us through the deception of the devil,etc. But He very lovingly and patiently deals with us, being firm but gentle at the same time. So that's where I learn to be a teacher- from the Holy Spirit, from our Abba and our loving Shepherd King.

  1. I can identify with what you've shared here.

    Yeah, different children learn differently.

    Lots of patience and love to deal firmly and yet gently with kids of varied nature and learning styles.

    When did you start teaching?

    The kids are blessed to have you as their teacher. ;)
