I am a teacher, well partly I am. I love to teach, I love to impart my learnings to the new aspiring pharmacy students. I was ready for everything that may happen in the future. What I am not ready about was the fact that I had a class full of irresponsible and disrespectful students. And I really, really hate it when they act like brats.
September 11, I promised to blog, I promised to post something in my trashbin, but I wasn't able to do so, because I was too tired to open a single page of my browser and I was so sick that I really need to rest. I was alone, my co-teacher was absent because he had to go somewhere. I am in front of almost 40 students and I asked them, "class did you bring the specimens, your Sir Rommel asked you to bring?" and they answered a big N-O. There are 6 groups and not a single group brought a single specimen. Sino ba namang teacher ang hindi maiinis sa kanyang mga iresponsableng estudyante? As I recall, when I was still in college, I believed we were so noisy back then, we were obviously pasaway, and sometimes hard-headed too. But then, when a teacher ask us to bring something for lab work, no matter how hard it is to find, we could bring it to school, we were so afraid for a single 1 point deduction in our grades. We were friends with our teachers outside the room, but we respected them inside the room. We know our limitations as a student. We feel ashamed when we got low in our exams and quizzes. Hindi namin pinangungunahan ang aming mga guro, we never asked them to meet us and have class in our convenient time, we were waiting patiently for our scheduled class to come.
I am so stressed with these type of students. Students who doesn't even know the course they took, students who doesn't know how to respect, how to listen and students who doesn't know how to answer a simple question. Students who doesn't know how to copy notes, who doesn't have initiative... Basta students na isusumpa mo na lang na mabagsak sa class mo. ang feeling na gusto mo silang lahat mawala sa paningin mo dahil nakakirita ang mga ugali nila, porke't mayaman kung umasta anak ng presidente, at kahit pa anak sila ng kung sino mang poncio pilato, hinding hindi ko sila uurungan, hinding hindi ko sila palalampasin. Tingnan natin sa finals..
Students ko, naka iPhone, naka iPad, naka Samsung. Halos lahat sila mayaman, ngunit parang halos lahat din sa kanila walang kwenta. Iyong tipong, kailangan mo pa talagang pukpukin, o di kaya nag-aabang nalang na subuan mo. At kung makakopya sa kaklase wagas, harap harapan, walang takot. kami nga kahit walang answer ayos lang, dahil alam naman namin na kami rin ang mawawalan. Maybe it's high time to get the "strict-side" of my past teachers.
magkita na lang tayo sa dulo ng ballpen ko! wala na talagang awa ito! huwag na huwag niyo akong subukan, dahil kayo rin ang mawawalan.
