My So Called Moments

My moments are quite simple nothing too loud or well , at least to say my so called moments are not the ones where for example, trying to hold the longest note in front of a crowd or you might just say something like where we stand up on a stage and everyone claps for a speech that you did so well.
Let's just say that whatever that you decide to do , even if the job is a simple one or a though one , you go through a moment and it really makes you feel good .

Like , take today for example , I was preparing a simple dictation for my class today and frankly speaking most of my students can't get it right . It's either they did not study for it or they were just too busy playing at home to even give it a thought . As I was writing , some of my students recognized a few words on the board .
I mean , it was like .... I was quite glad because I know for a fact that it has never been an easy task to get them to read and hearing them pronouncing these words made me feel so nice inside ; meaning that my teaching after all these months, has not gone down the drain !!!

Deep inside I felt nice and I knew it that I could not quit on my students . Let it be if others think that my class is the last class on earth . These children are here to learn . It is amazing what these children can do . They even correct me when I make a mistake and I don't feel taken aback at all . I wrote the wrong day today and a boy stood up and told me that .
It is a nice feeling .......... I like my moments with my children and they seem to amaze me.
