I am science teacher in government school.
I had one student Radha in my class. Her way of dressing up was not #neat. Sometimes she will come to school without properly #tucking her hair . Inspite of my many request she will not care for my tips to remain #tidy.
Other girl students were very particular about their tidy habits. But some how Radha was never able to pick up those important tips of remaining tidy in #life.
Radha said” madam you don’t realise that I do not have #mother.Though my father helps me a lot in house #hold activities. I have to push myself so much at #home front so that I could come to school in #time. Madam my father also goes to office. We donot have washing #machine at home therefore washing clothes itself is big #assignment for me.Therefore dear madam I try my best to follow your #advise, and I am working very seriously to come to your #expectations regarding my clean look.
I said ” dear Radha I do understand your work load but there are certain things which are to be kept at #priority in life.You can’t give these excuses to every one, or you can not say that I do not get #time to do so.
I further said ” dear Radha please come out of your comfort zone of being tidy at less degree which is not #accepted in society any more. Please give my advise little thought if possible. I am sure you will soon learn #tricks how to maintain tidy looks”
I observed Radha gradually started improving in her #tidiness degree.It was a slow progress, but progress was definitely there. Gradually my other friends teachers of my school noticed the change in Radha. I was so happy for my student Radha.t
I did self talk” It is so difficult to live without #mother. My student Radha was living example of same. I wish I could tell same to my other students .But alas it was not possible in time tight #schedule of school”.
In my heart as teacher I was happy that I could #contribute a bit in my student life. God bless my dear student Radha.
