Ordinary Teacher

Being Optimistic

| Wednesday, May 7, 2008

Assalamualaikum

Today will be the end of my one and a half week holiday back @ home, I will be leaving KL first thing tomorrow morning straight to Tangkak and report for duty. This Sunday, the new batch of matriculation students will walk in and register themselves.

Unfortunately, sorry to say that the quality of students enrolled here for the past few years have should I say deteriorate and last batch was kind of a headache to me. Not all but majority of them was undeserving bunch of ungrateful nincompoops.

What I can hope this incoming intake will be better than before (wishful thinking), but a teacher must never give up hope of educating but it's really frustrating when you realized that you were the only one showing enthusiasm instead of those who should really matters.

Every year, the result of any major examination here in Malaysia seems to increase no matter what. Sometimes, students even came to me after a difficult math's paper and asked whether the results graph will be lowered or not. I mean hey, we don't have to cover our asses for these bad results that they have. The effects? Many dropouts or jobless graduates here in Malaysia. Who's to blame? Just think about it. There is a flaw in the system somewhere.

All I can say is that maybe the system should be revised so that we don't let through those who are not qualified to be in higher education. Maybe their fate lies somewhere else and they might be more successful that way. We do not want to shape Malaysia as a fake country who produce countless numbers of graduate with no job. It's the quality that matters not quantity.

Anyhow, it is going to be another long semester ahead, and let just hope for the best. Until then take care now bye bye then.
