Since teachers are said to be the second parent of the children, they impose one of the

strongest influence in the lives of our pupils. They play an important role in moulding the

kids. A study reveals that so many school children today lack interest in their studies.  This is

because most of them are affected by family problem, financial stability, broken homes, etc.

It is in this situation that teachers should take time in listening and communicating with their

pupils.

            The time allotted in teaching Values Education must be prioritized so that teachers

will be able to encourage their pupils and teach them the traits that a child must learn. aside

from this, their  also need to find time on having a one-on-one communication time with their

pupils so she can help them in whatever situation they are facing. A listening ear is vital when

problems come in the life of her learner. A teacher needs to understand that she’s not only a

plain teacher in the classroom but also a Guidance Counselor to her pupils.

            If a teacher truly wants to inspire her learners, she also needs to set quality time with

her pupils. This is one important ways of telling her kids that Love is in the Classroom.
