Teaching For the First Time

Three years ago, I had an experience in teaching students in a formal school for the first time. This was the story.

One day, my mother, a kindegarten teacher in a play group was sick. Then, my mother asked me to teach her students. I could not say no at that time. It was because there was no another person to teach her students.

At 7 a.m, I arrived at school. All students accompaning by their parents had arrived too. Then, I started the class. I asked them to pray together. Their voices were very loudly and the class became so crowded. After that, I taught them some songs. I sang “balonku”, “topi saya bundar”, and many more. I was very happy because they were very excited. They directly followed me singing those songs.

At 8 a.m, I asked the students to paint a picture. All of the students were very excited. They all had brought the complete stasionary. They also had brought all colours of crayon. I did not expect that my mother’s students were dicipline and smart. After they finished their painting, they collected it to me.

At 9 o’clock, the class was over. I asked the students to pray together and they still did it with the loudly voice. Then, they left the class. Their parents had been in front of the class to pick their child up.

This was my first experience in teaching. I was very exhausted after it, but I was very happy and I could not forget about it.
