A young man approaches an elderly man and asks, “Do you remember me?”.
The elderly person answers, “No,”. The young man then claims to have been his student. The teacher then inquires, “What do you do, what do you do in life?”.
Anúncios
The young man replies, “Well, I became a teacher”.
Ah, wonderful, just like me, the old man remarked.
Anúncios
doubtless yes. I wanted to be like you, which is why I decided to study education”.
When does he want to become a teacher, the elderly man wonders aloud to the boy. The young man continues, “One day, a fellow student came in with a fantastic new watch, and I decided I wanted it.
His pocket was where I snatched it from.
A young man and an old man cross paths.
Shortly after, my friend discovered his watch was missing and immediately informed our teacher, you.
A student’s watch had been stolen in class, it was then revealed to the class. Please deliver it back. ”.
I chose not to send it back because I didn’t want to.
You instructed us to stand up in a circle as you closed the door.
You would look through our pockets for the watch. You asked us to close our eyes, but you wouldn’t look for his watch unless everyone was complying.
We followed the guidelines.
Before reaching mine, you searched through every pocket. There, you discovered the watch, which you then took. When you were done poking around in their pockets, you ordered them to open their eyes. “The watch is with us here. You didn’t accuse me, and you never brought up the incident. Furthermore, you omitted to say who took the watch. You permanently preserved my honor that day. The incident was the most embarrassing thing I’ve ever done.
But on this day I also resolved not to turn into a thief, a jerk, etc. You didn’t say anything, reprimand me, or pull me aside to teach me a lesson.
I got what you were trying to say.
What a real educator must do was made clear to me by you. Are you still able to recall this incident, professor?
Yes, I do recall the incident involving the stolen watch that I was trying to find in everyone’s pocket, the old professor replied. I didn’t remember you because I was also looking with closed eyes.
This is the first and most important rule of education: “You don’t know how to teach if you have to make someone feel bad in order to correct them. ”.
