To My Fellow Teachers

In midst of these unwanted times, 
many students are psychologically 
pressured due to loads of school work.

But at the end of the day,
when things go back to normal, 
I am sure that they will not remember
the things that we taught to them...

But they will remember the moments
of struggle and hardships...
They will remember the moments
how their teachers cared and supported
them in such ways just to pass 
the course.

Should we really think about the students' outcomes? Probably...
Should we focus on teaching the content of 
our lessons? Maybe...
Should we pay attention to our teaching pedagogy to make learning
worthwhile? Perhaps...

In my own opinion, we should
emphatize our students and give them
the best emotional support and care.
We need to teach them to share,
collaborate and support one another
with favorable restrictions ??.

Our commitment nowadays
is to act out the core values
and be a humanistic 
educator.

After all, care is one of the most
essential needs of a human being
