Teaching with Hope

04/2/14
Blog 12

This topic is only from my teacher's blog, just want to let you guys know.

  • Not so long ago, I became hopeful when I first found out about the writing contest from RIT in New York. At first, I wasn't sure about me, joining for the writing contest since I never won in every contest that I joined before. My teacher thought that I would give a try since I like to write, wait, cross that part out, I LOVED writing. It makes me to write what I wanted from my imagination to go. So I decided to join the contest and luckily I was working on my essay about what kind of career after high school, I quickly applied and sent my best essay along with my draft essay to New York. Hopefully, I hope I could win for the writing contest soon!

  • To be honest, I don't know if I'm giving hope to my students. But in my heart, I know that I'm giving hope to my students and myself. Not all times that students can just work hard and must have straight A+, students can work hard and try their best to achieve their own dreams. I want all students to drive their passion and become successful after high school because I know they will be the best person they will become and move on.

  • According to another blog, I found out that there was another teacher who focus students one by one, always talking and connecting each other. I believe that If the teacher is hopeful enough, it might change one student to another students' life someday.

  • For my future classroom, I think that maybe every once a while, we would sit down in a circle, we would tell our personal feeling (If my students are comfortable), what's going on our life, maybe some games to ignore stress. I want my students to live on a safe, comfortable area where my students can breathe and let it go whatever they have and focus on the positive side.
