Does your kid’s teacher(s) has passion for teaching children?
Miloboy’s Primary One teacher last year (in year 2009), is someone who really has a passion with teaching kids. She alerts me of Miloboy’s condition and she keeps Miloboy’s attention in check, letting him sit in the middle of the classroom and getting the class’s probably best student, to help supervise Miloboy’s attention span.
I am really very glad that she did all these that she makes me feel a bit apologetic to the girl who helps to “supervise” my boy. But, when I heard that she took Miloboy’s stationery without permission from Miloboy, I tell myself, well, she got her “payment”. Don’t feel too bad about it….
How I wish she’s teaching Miloboy this year. Well, sometimes, you just have to accept the fact that Life is full of up and downs. You do not get someone as good as that teacher every year. If your children do, you must be the world’s luckiest parent!
This year, Miloboy’s teacher made him sit right at the corner of the classroom, which is also the “backdoor” of the class. You can imagine, an ADHD kid, it is pretty hard for him to concentrate at a position like this. I must say that Miloboy has done well. So far, he only “forgotten” to takedown his homework 3 times….. Trust me, he really improved compared to last year….
I did alert the teacher. He KNEW about this. He even acknowledged it. I was a bit surprised to know that Miloboy is not sitting somewhere that the teacher can help to monitor him. Then again, he has NO obligation to help Miloboy.
Also, those kids sitting beside Miloboy also seems to have the same problem, maybe milder than Miloboy. This is because, they also seem to heck care or not aware of what is happening around them. (Happens to most ADHD and Autism kids)
My only conclusion is, if a teacher who has passion for teaching children, he/she will want the best out of everyone. Miloboy’s teacher this year seems disorganized and have not much passion for teaching…. pretty much from what I have seen and conversed with him so far….
