I was given a book by the parents of my students where numerous photographs were included. It was published professionally and I was so appreciative of the effort and craftmanship that I needed to make a blog post about it. Let me share the contents, the voice of the children, in their eyes of what I am.
I love Teacher Jonathan! Bin

I love the school because I get to do everything that I want to discover and art because I get to paint. I love Mr. Jonathan because he always help me. Chris
School is fun because after lunch and snack we get to play outside. Teacher Jonathan is funny because he makes jokes, like one time he took Proud's lunch bag and knocked on it and asked if it is Olivia's house. Kaia

ReplyDeleteAahhh.. Those morning hugs from the kids... From the hallways, toilets and the random hugs in the classroom.
One can never get tired of this job because it pays with something that money cant afford to buy---- warmth, love, respect and hugs!
So true, that's why I stayed for a long time in teaching.
ReplyDeleteAnd I know you found your space, and I am hoping that the years will bring you much honour, love, respect and friendships.
All the best!
You do an amazing job as a teacher. That I am witness (well, off-site) to the wonderful things you do continues to endear you to me.
ReplyDeleteKudos, and may your tribe increase!
Wonderful post,Jonathan,
ReplyDeleteYou should be proud of your self as a teacher!
Great and kind words again my dear, and thank you again Mister! I believe that when one work with passion and dedication, everything falls into their own places. Teaching becomes not just work, but a journey to share and help people become better.
ReplyDeleteThank you Ms. Tomoko,
ReplyDeleteYes, I am proud of myself for being the teacher I am right now. I am happy that you shower me with kind words as well.
Have a great day!
Heto ang nagpapasaya sa mga teachers. Yung na-appreciate ang mga ginagawa nila.
