It looks like just yesterday when my friends don’t have time to talk with each other to settle some of their feuds. Both of them are working in an educational institution where my guy friend is teaching in the high school department and my lady friend is in the elementary department.
Their feud started when my guy friend disagreed on the event that the elementary department student could not join the educational trip of the high department. Field trip or educational trip is one of the educational activities of schools here to represent and for the student to see what exactly is being done in the real world with regards to what is being taught inside the classroom.
Since some of the itinerary (I’m not sure), as my high school teacher friend emphasized are not totally suited for the pupils and it is specifically for high school students only. The debate at the meeting conducted by the Principal had made the fire between them grew even more.
Their feuds even manifested at the whole school and it was observed by the student both in high school and in the higher level of pupils in the elementary department. The principal even called them to settle the problem, but it did not materialize. The feud continued to another year, but had been minimized due to some convincing schemes discussed with them by some of their co-teachers friends.
High school and elementary students are vocal to the things that attract them. As a teacher, you should display an extra-ordinary affection with your student so that they will become open to you and further learn their behaviors in which serve as a portal for you to base the lesson, especially if you’re handling values formation related subjects or lessons.
For this reason, the students tease both teachers stating “the more you hate, the more you love.” Every time both teachers incidentally encounter at the corridor, the students were the first to display reactions which trigger both teachers to display civility, but the students keep on teasing them that they could be a perfect partner for both. The student got the idea from the Greek Mythology about the love that had been developed between Hephaestus and Aphrodite.
One day, the lady teacher, an hour before class dismissal in the afternoon was visited by a guy. Unknowingly for the guy teacher, but an obvious reaction had seen by some of the students and the teachers that the guy teacher displayed an obvious reaction that he was jealous while seeing the lady teacher having a fun chat with the other guy. For this, the guy teacher received teasing remarks from his co-teacher in the department.
The following days, every one was struck, asking their selves what had happened. They are now seeing both teachers having good conversations, smiling one another once in while and even eat together during lunch breaks. The rest is history.
On May 24, 2008, Ian and Reign will get married. My heartfelt congratulations for both you guys.
