Teaching
is not an easy job. It demands a lot of
work and consideration. But, what was so
amazing is that there are so many ways to teach. Above all these different ways to teach,
there’s got to be a way of knowing when to use them. Let me share some of the different methods of
teaching in a poem and please name them as you read along.
One of the ways to teach is to
discuss things in a group
Everyone in class is divided into a
troupe
To find out what is the false and
what is the truth
An ample time is given for each one
to share and to listen
But when all wanted to stand out, as
to speak and to be heard,
Sometimes
discussions end in frustration and confusion
Only
one talks, everyone listens
You’ ve
got to take down notes
For
you don’t know what you’ll be missin’
Don’t
bother to ask, you’re not allowed to
The
lecturer is the ‘star’
He
is the expert-so far
Bzzz,
bzzzz, small clots are chatting
To
discus an issue is just too short
Busy
to find a solution to a certain problem
Their
answer is to be reported in the plenary
Too
quickly a problem can be solved
Short
also of facts and the issues are not well absorbed
The
panel sitted in front
The
experts of a topic they are called
To
talk and to mingle
The
moderator in the middle
Later
on the audience may ask to clarify
The
matters that seemed to be unclear
A
reminder for you that whenever you teach
Don’t
forget to specify the objectives to reach
Try
to find out which is the best that would fit
A
learning that is at best and a path that is lit
To
the road of knowing where the future is laid
