The guiding lights in our lives

ESSENCE - Liagaya Rabago-Visaya - The Freeman

I had great teachers. I spent decades of my life in teaching as well. And while we reflect on the people who had a significant impact on our lives today, we consider how they impacted subsequent generations.

Teachers play a crucial role in shaping the lives of the youth and preparing them for the future. They are not just educators; they are mentors, motivators, and friends. Throughout the academic journey, we come across numerous teachers who leave a lasting impact on us. We will explore the significance of remembering our teachers and the valuable lessons they imparted.

One of the reasons we should remember teachers is because they foster in us a drive to study. They have the ability to make even the most uninteresting subjects intriguing and captivating. The enthusiasm and dedication of the young inspires them to learn more about the topic.

In addition to imparting academic knowledge, teachers serve as role models for their students, offering moral and ethical teaching. They teach young people the importance of integrity, compassion, and perseverance. Their guidance helps students build their character and prepares them to handle challenges in the outside world. Teachers are remembered not only for the material they taught, but also for the values they instilled.

The students’ lives can be improved by excellent teachers. Teachers can fill the gap in a student’s life where there is a lack of support. They can serve as an example for others and serve as an inspiration for bigger and better things.

Additionally, teachers have a significant influence on a person’s sense of self-worth and confidence. They acknowledge their positive traits and exhort them to reach their full potential. The success of a teacher may be fueled by their confidence in their skills. We cherish them who never wavered in their belief in us despite our own self-doubt.

Recalling our teachers is a means of showing our appreciation for their unselfish commitment and enormous influence on our lives. Our intellectual and personal development has been forever changed by them. Let us strive to uphold their teachings and principles as we go through life, keeping in mind the memories of them.

One of the most important parts of teaching is having dedication. Teachers not only listen, but also coach and mentor their students. They are able to help shape academic goals and are dedicated to getting their students to achieve them. Teachers have patience for their students and are understanding when a concept isn’t taking shape.

Teachers work because they desire to be of service to others. They are passionate about educating children, not because they want recognition or compensation. Teachers often teach because they believe in the value of education and the necessity of giving children positive role models. They have a passion for the cause.

Throughout my academic career, I had excellent teachers. And I have devoted my life to my students for many years, and even though I have already retired from teaching, I am still using my remaining years to prepare the current generation for a future that will be significantly better than the one we currently have.

Happy Teacher’s Day to all teachers of yesterday, today and in the future! Our teachers have built this current generation who crafted the legacy and will carry this legacy as we continue to shape this generation for a better future.
