What I Want my Students to be Ten Years from Now

“Teach success before teaching responsibility. Teach them to believe in themselves. Teach them to think, 'I'm not stupid'. No child wants to fail. Everyone wants to succeed.”
What I want my students to be ten years from now? I want them to have their own stable professional job, if not, a job that leads them to contentment. Furthermore, I covet them to be a good citizen in our country. As teacher, I was responsible for the overall success of my students, and so I had to know at least a little bit about everything.
Yes, everyone wants to succeed. Therefore, all teachers look forward that they will see someday that their students are on their top of their success. And that will be the greatest fulfilment that teachers could have.

How I want to be remembered by my Students

There is no surefire what would my students be. But as their teacher want them all the best. Thus, it’s my responsibility to inculcate to them the knowledge they need in order for them to be successful whatever the path they choose.
The relationship between children and I, their teacher, tends to be closer for I act as form tutor, specialist teacher and surrogate parent during the course of the day. Consequently, I want to be remembered by my students as their teacher that once became part of their success; that I was their friend and a shoulder they could cry on during their darkest times of their lives; that once I scolded them not to lessen their confidence but to correct their mistakes for them to learn a lesson; and lastly I want them to remember me when I taught them in order for them to strive more for the best.
“A Teacher Tells, a Good Teacher Explains, a Better Teacher Demonstrates, a Best Teacher Inspires.”
This sums up how I want to be remembered by my students.
