3. Based on your experience, why do you think some teachers are better loved
by students than others?

Based on my experience during field study teachers love their students

fairly so that the children would influence society as well as they learn how to
love themselves because children are imitators not an interpreter, teachers must
be a role model who inspires the young hearts, whom children expected.

4. Why are some teachers reported to have bumped a learner’s head on the
wall or made a child swallow scratch paper or pencil filings? What
attribute do you think is low for this teacher?

The tropical trait of a teacher to bumped learners who can’t hold his/her
anger, it is very important to not professionally as I should say control
emotions and work patiently are qualities of being a good educator, because a
teacher should have a tender heart to handle the children, who always looked
up as a guide that requires lots of sacrifices.

John Donne said in Meditation XVII: No man is an island… “All mankind of

author, and is one volume; when one man dies, one chapter is not torn out of the
book. But translated into a better language; and every chapter must be so
translated... As therefore the bell that rings to a sermon, calls not upon the preacher
only, but upon the congregation to come; so this bell calls us all: but hoe much
more me, who am brought so near the door by this sickness... No man is an island,
 entire of itself.” The idea that people are not isolated from one another, but that
mankind is interconnected.
This implies that we don’t live in vacuum. We live in a society. We are part of
society. Our thoughts, values and actions are somehow shaped by events and people
we come in contract with. We, in turn, help shape society-its events, its people and
its destiny.
In the context of your life as a teacher, we would say: “No teacher is an island. No
teacher stands alone”. Indeed, you can’t become a TEACHER alone!
