Having been busy with lessons to be prepared on a daily basis? …not to mention the need for an internet connection to actualize these intentions…?

Having been enriched with materials, videos, literatures, and the likes from different sources? Haven’t all these been useful for their daily or yearly preparation of lessons?

Haven’t all these materials triggered their imagination to approach each lesson simply or creatively? Haven’t all these made their tasks simpler now that they already have their own made-lessons?

Haven’t teachers been good strategists simplifying a complex lesson? …breaking tasks to bits; unpacking broad objectives or simply making shortcuts but on a reasonable way or level?

Haven’t students been given opportunities to share in the discussion where they themselves created their own PPTs that have largely contributed to their learning and involvement in the lesson? Haven’t been amazed by the strategic and creative minds of these young people?

Haven’t teachers exuded concern and generosity via investing projectors, laptops, external hard drives, flash drives and the likes? Haven’t all these fastened and smoothened what seem to be long and difficult lessons?

Furthermore, haven’t teachers been in a sickly state where they have been financially challenged? Haven’t they displayed strength of character, will, and purpose to overcome these difficulties?

Haven’t teachers been spiritual so as to see beyond these struggles? Haven’t they resort to guidance and advice of more experienced people whether they be on YouTube or the important people around them?

Haven’t teachers been relieved or healed of the dread consequences of illnesses physically and emotionally?  Haven’t they fixed their eyes on their BELIEF that have made them stronger via experiences?

These are all yours to answer: Someone quotes: Dreams do come true. Anyone who tells you otherwise simply gave up …(or they simply need opportunities)
