From my early days as a child I have always love teaching, I would gather the children around and tutor them on various things from their note. I grew hoping that one day I might find myself in that career, due to my passion for teaching I took the role of a teacher after the completion of my tertiary education just to test the waters once again as my area of discipline was not in the teaching profession. I taugh for a few years and i was able to fulfil my long-term desires of working a class room.
Looking those year when I worked in that capacity I am so happy because many of my student are doing so well now in life, am glad I was part of their success stories. And I was able to contribute my own quota to their educational advancement and achievements.
But with the way things are currently in our educational system it is so mind boggling to see the kind of secondary school graduate that schools are producing one cannot but wonder where all the morals and discipline we used to have then suddenly disappeared to. Infact the educational systems is nothing to write home about.
It is really worth building a career in the teaching profession in Nigeria?
