Thank You, My Great Teachers!

I am looking for a teacher

(Marilyn Pattison)

I am looking for a teacher

Who is beautiful inside

Honest with their student

Giving them a sense of pride

I am looking for a teacher

With a healthy self esteem

Who clearly, states the rules

And doesn’t have to scream

I am looking for a teacher

Who creatively prepares

But whose first priority

Is to convey that she cares

I am looking for a teacher

Who is interested, not aloof

Who treats her student with respect

Even when they goof

I am looking for a teacher

Who knows how to laugh and smile

Who enjoys what she’s doing

And goes the extra mile

I am looking for a teacher

Who believes all students can learn

Who praises their efforts and talents

They give teir best return

I am looking for a teacher

Who will fill a child with desire

To love to learn more everyday

With curiosity that wont tire

I am looking for a teacher

Who encourages children to have a dream

To work at solving problems

Building their self esteem

There are some teachers out there

The kind I’m looking for

For their students future success

They have opened up the door.

~Amanah menjadi pendidik terlalu besar dan berat, bahkan inilah yang dinamakan arkitek bangsa. Ibu bapa merupakan pendidik yang tidak boleh dipandang enteng kerana didikan dari rumahlah yang akan membawa ke tempat lain. Ucapan penghargaan pada semua yang bergelar ibu bapa, didiklah amanahmu sebaiknya. Begitu juga pada yang bergelar guru-guru, lihatlah mata-mata yang bening di hadapanmu, sinar cahaya terpancar dari raut wajah mereka. Senakal manapun mereka, se"tidak pandai" manapun mereka tetap jua punya harga dan nilai tersendiri. Jangan pernah mencemuh mereka kerana perkara itu hanya membuatkan dendam mereka pada yang bernama guru merebak, lantas menyebabkan semua yang bergelar guru menjadi tidak enak pada pandangan mereka. Terima kasih guru-guruku, jasa dan pengorbananmu tidak dapat dibayar untuk selamanya. Di kaulah insan-insan yang membuka pintu buat kejayaanku hari ini.~
