3166. I Write for Nice Committed Teachers!
I’m reading an
interesting book about what Pope Francis is doing in favor of immigrants, the
homeless, girls that may fall in prostitution networks… He has done quite a lot
for them and keeps doing things for them.
Something else could be done by us
teachers.
I live in Europe, the target and finish of many immigrants that
travel across the Mediterranean Sea to find something better than in their
origin-countries, submerged in endemic wars. Many of them die on the way here. Something
may be done.
For example I know many teachers and young people that invest
their free time by doing things in favor of for example the elderly: old people
that live rather lonely. And they are doing something great!
Summer is coming,
and also I know teachers who are volunteering for English camps for boys or for
girls, and that’s great too. Also some of those teachers are assisting at urban
summer camps, as well by doing things for kids, like for instance teaching English
as a foreign language.
Maybe we can plan our summer by also doing something for
other people. We can dedicate time to our families, of course, plus
volunteering for some nice enterprise.
And something specific we can also do is
carrying out our professional work the best we can do: that’s the first
priority. I mean: by doing our job better than what legally is indebted to us. I know many of you do it so.
And
as well what I’m telling you on the last posts: receiving and accepting our
students with attention and affection – doing more than what is owed to us as teachers.
Anyway I know most of you teachers are doing your best and fulfilling your
duties as very committed teachers, because you’re the ones that drop past blogs
for teachers too! / Photo from: Learning-English-in-Ireland Teach Ezi. The picture
might show a young person among the many ones that volunteer at their free
time.
