MR. ALL-Knowing NEAR- Perfection
{Teacher VILDON ROMERO)
We look life in different ways. Some say, life is so
easy and wonderful to live but others did not look the same way.
Easy, a one word that popped into my mind
when I first encountered the English subject. The plural and singular form of
the verb, what are a noun, pronoun and etc., synonyms and antonyms were the
common lessons that I learned from my teacher in elementary. But when I entered
the portals of my high school life, I started to realize many things.
English is not as easy as I thought it was. I cannot speak English language fluently;
this is the reason why I say so. But even though my perception towards English
subject had changed, still I enjoyed every single thing I learned from it.
College life is so different from the high
school. You have to be an independent person and the subjects are more
perplexing. Perplexing in a sense that it has lots of inconsistencies and it is
more complicated. That is the reason why I recognize English now as a very
challenging subject that needs to be taken seriously.
Although some students perceive the English
subject as a hindrance to their success but still we need to study English
because it is very important. By learning and understanding this subject, you
would not have any problem in communicating with other people with the correct
usage of grammar. Furthermore in finding a job especially in the field of
communication, it is essential to know how to speak English because it is the
most basic requirement for most jobs.
By this moment let me become your mirror so that you
can see the beauty of your very own self. It is my pleasure that I had given
the authority to reflect my teacher’s life through my pens ink. I though hope that through this simple matter
I can able to express my salute and thanks giving for your great impartation
unto us the student. Let me start here. It’s my first impression during the
Seminar Workshop in Campus Journalism. Shall I call him Mr. All-knowing Near-Perfection.
He opens up our minds in our new level of learning. He is good in writing and speaking.
One thing that amazes me was that he
knows how to look at the picture and how to take a proper angle and shots in
taking of it. I knew then that this man was a former Editor- In- Chief of Philippine
Normal University student publication. Not just a journalist, but a nationwide
competitor in Campus Journalism awardees. Perhaps this man was good in Art. I
had said it since I had saw art and fashion the way he bring himself. Not in
the sense of being “maarte”, but, he was so artistic person….Artista nay an!!!!
(jokingJ)
This moment, let me formalize my mode of writing. Let
us go to class proper. I can’t forget how he removed the word “kapoy” in
learning English subject particularly in writing in academic purposes. There
were so many glittering words he threw in unto us as his strategy in order for
us to put our discussion in our mind.
One thing I can’t forget. The thing he mentions that we
were not perfect as we were all a human but at least we were near unto it. Indeed
he is! A man tries to be the best one. Mr. All-knowing Near-Perfection honed us
and imparted us great treasure of learning while we are enjoying our class
time. I realize then that learning and enjoying was not totally and enemy but
an ideal partner in learning. Mr. All-knowing Near-Perfection was an educator
that knows how to read between the lines and even reading unseen and hearing
unspoken words of the students. Discovering the facts or a person’s real
feeling of opinions that was not directly express.
Educators performance manifest (“in???” “on???”) the students learning and performance.(i
remember when sir All-knowing Near-Perfection corrected me in using in or on…)
let me paraphrase it in my own words…. It goes like this. “Tell me who are your
students are and I will tell you what kind of educator you are”. It was a
challenge for me and to all. These were the things I learned.
Mr. All-knowing Near-Perfection inspires us the
students to be serious and he taught us to love our subject.
To love English subject is so hard for me but I am
willing to learn from it. Also I am hoping that someday I will look at the
English subject as a plain land that has a beautiful surroundings and not a
mountain that is so hard to reach.
Hence, how I wish you sir to be with us always as we
go on in our journey being college student. Tana ikaw nalang amoang English
teacher permi! ^_^.. So that all of us will be awaken. In Short,para walay
makatulog J..Thank You sir…
