Student Teacher Poem

Sorry madam, I can’t you follow

Don’t move son, I’ll come to your row.

I can’t understand a word from your mouth

Next time I’ll bring my PC and a mouse.

English makes me look stupid and ill at ease

Well then, I’ll teach you English in Chinese.

Teacher, teacher I have lost my book

Never, ever instead use your face book.

Blessed having connexion in our classroom

A pity! for your smart phone you have no room.

Studies, homework and revision yet, not ready for the exam

Sacrifice texting, chatting and log off your Instagram.

Dad and mum about my school results do complain

Tell them video games have killed the student in you, what a shame!

I sometimes cross the lines and of school rules make light

Learning is both a duty and a right not a joke neither a fight.

Misunderstanding always occurs, you and I should find a way

Dear student to yourself and the teacher a due respect you should pay.

A most pleasant exchange of words and views, Besma! Technology is moving at a fast pace, and though it has many benefits, it can also be a hindrance, especially to young ones who very often just live for the moment. ~ Warm regards // paul

Students are more and more relying on technology and losiny precious skills that are paramount to their studies.. technology has deeply affected our lives.. what is important is being always aware of this fact and acting accordingly.. thank you so much Paul for appreciating and giving value to my humble work.
