Teaching or Cheating. . . ?
We hear that the Maldivian Teachers are on strike for raising the pay. I feel this is a start of a new stir in our small community. My question to all who are on strike is simple " is that what you need to teach your students?" If not I can say this very loud and clear "YOU ARE DEMONSTRATING EXAMPLES FOR OUR CHILDREN". If i were to take decision on the matter i will sack all the teachers on strike and let people who need to work teaching as noble profession be with it.
What do you really need? Pay? If you need money why did you choose to teach. Buy choosing the profession that you are a CHEATER NOT A TEACHER. You need to get money then go for something which pays the money. Teaching is a profession which is developed for the love of public. If any one needs to pay for your work then it is you who needs to do it. If you do not like it LEAVE the profession.
I have been pointing out who needs to be responsible for our youth who roam around the streets aimlessly. Well here we find one of the party who shall take the responsibility for them. We do not see our youth today has the basic courtesy's in life such as "Please, Excuse me, Sorry, Good morning or simply basics of Islam Assalaamu Alaikum" within their manners.
Who needs to teach these simple but very important courtesies. Well i am sure Teachers plan an important role. My son told me that his class teacher at Ghazee School came late to the class and excused him self for the delay by explaining that he needed a shave before coming to school. I wonder how many more would there be like this as ill mannered with the present teachers in the Maldives.
We all blame the government, but is there any responsibility within ourselves? I feel shame to see these ill mannered acts. I call the government and people who take decisions for these teachers don't let them ruin any more of our kids. Solve these small but important issues before increasing any salaries or doing anything for them. Or our kids may be in the wrong hands.
