7 Purposeful Years of Teaching, and Learning.

We’re blessed to teach. Meet Ms. Sajona.

I’ve received a service award together with my co-teachers who have been in the company for more than 5 years last week. Oh boy, time flies. I’ve been in the education industry for 7 glorious years! Those years passed by like a swoosh. And I barely noticed them. Maybe because I’ve been too busy and happy being in the classroom.

“How do you teach?” My husband randomly asked when he saw this picture posted on my Facebook. “Like how I teach Kyle.” I spontaneously answered. “I teach my students the way I want my child to be taught.”

My response to Alex led to this reflection: That I became a better teacher when I became a mom. Which lead to another realization: That I am a better mom because of my learning from my students. (Don’t get me wrong, I am not comparing myself to other moms and teachers here… and I will never do that because we are all uniquely  great!)

Being a mom and at the same time a teacher taught me…

To be  more caring, gentle and patient

To never assume to know it all

To appreciate the “little things”

To give

And to love…

More.

Sure, I have my days…. and every time I stumble, I pray. When my children (my own and my students) are grown,  I hope that they get to enjoy the bounty, the harvest they are cultivating with me when we’re at home, in the classroom, or in my every opportunity to teach them. I earnestly pray to be able to touch lives.

It has been 7 wonderful years of teaching, and learning.  And I wholeheartedly thank You.
