Any country that don't have enough teachers or even teachers at all is at risk. The reason why I said so is because teachers are the bedrock of any nation. When we don't have teachers, then we can't learn. I'm saying this because I am a teacher by profession aside that I have been taught by teachers at every level of my life. Right from when I was a child and up till now that I am grown up. I still receive teaching from all manner of teachers. Both the good ones and the bad ones.
That is true because for everything that have original there must be fake. That we have fake don't mean the absence of original. It means that we have original. Maybe people are too use to the fake products that made them decide that we don't have original. No we do. In fact, fake is a copy of the original that did not end well and it turned out to be fake. Or is because people are trying to mimics the original that is why we have fake everywhere today.
I don't know why when a student is not performing well we call the teachers, but when they become great people in the society, only the parents claim all the glory. Why? Why not the teacher? If when a child fails it becomes the fault of the teachers, what of when the child is successful? Hahahaha 🤣. That is the irony of life. Things don't really work out the way we expect it, or the way it should. We just accept things the way we see them.
A STUDENT COMES FROM A HOME!
No child was born in school. Even if the child was born in school, it doesn't become the responsibility of the teachers to make sure that child is good or great academically. Their must be a home for every child. I want us to remember that a child learns the first good or bad behavior at home first before coming to school. Why do we have children who bully others in school just because mummy and daddy are always fighting at home? Of course yes, that child picked it from home. Most students come to school stealing because it is the habit that was introduced to them at home first before coming to school.
WHO TO BLAME FOR A CHILD'S FAILURE?
From what I have observed, we have three categories of people that should be blamed when a child fails.
The parents: They are the first teachers, first doctor, first friend , first nurse, first master, first pilot, first driver, first to spank, first darling, first lawyer and first everything good or bad we can talk about today.
Second, we have the social. The child first knows the society and also learn from them before going to school. So, you notice that ever before the child starts schooling, alot has been learnt already. And sometimes it will not be easy for the teacher to remove all of these that the child has learned before coming to school. Even at that tender age, the child has little friends already and have started learning from them. So, how is it the fault of teachers alone when a child goes bad?
Lastly we have the school and the teacher. This is the third category of people that this child will meet in his or her life. Academics starts in earnest. It will not automatically erase what has been learned from day one. The teacher can try his or her best. For some children it will only take a little while and the child will adjust and begin to follow instructions given by the teacher and the school at large. But for some it may take a very long time. To some it may not even be possible to remove those things at that tender age until when that child grows to maybe ten age or ab adult.
Sincerely speaking, I don't see how it is the fault of the teacher alone when a child goes bad or can not learn fast like others.
Finally, there are this category of children that no matter what you do to them to make them better, they will only change when is time to change and there is nothing any one can do about it
