Well, may God open doors for you to begin to see the need for you to own your own school. Your years of experience in teaching profession is not a waste. It's a passion for you and you will succeed in it. Begin to plan on how you can start something for yourself, something like an after-school lesson. It may be tough at the beginning, but the later days will be worthwhile |

Kobojunkie:alright, you want me to give solutions to education in a country that doesn't value opinions from people like me. I know you are fine with the matrix. We are raising kids to be obedient slaves and tools for the rat race, most of these children can't do things on their own they don't know anything about critical thinking, they can't think outside the box they locked them with principles and laws they do not need to know. You are making a lot of sense literally. But you have not seen the problem from my point of view. I am not forcing you to agree. I have been teaching professionally for 9 years with my TRCN and B.ed. I did a lot of research on curriculum planning and alternative resources to learning. You made mention of emotional intelligence which is very essential in children lives. You can't have emotional intelligent children if they do not learn to accept criticism in the cruel way. These days you correct a child by the rod you are violating his human rights, you correct a child verbally you are abusive. You encourage a child you are manipulative. That's why children these days are prone to killing themselves out depression that never existed but they lack emotional intelligence. I teach biology as a subject and I try my possible best to relate my subject with the real world. I can body tell 3/4 of what is learnt in school is unecessary. We have left things like psychology of the mind, ignored psychomotor development, importance of values... But we want our wards and children to be perfect. I always let my students know mistake is acceptable it becomes a problem when it is becomes repetitive. I do not quickly use the rod. I would have warned a child 3 times if repeated after that I will flog I do not care if you Tinubu' daughter. That is me. Money is not me, but my integrity and values is my strength. Countries like china that are not wiser theoretically are doing well than us because they communicated with nature more than we do. How many times do we bask in the sun. This is part of the things that boost pur cognitive memory. We know have more dumb children than we do in the past because of negligence. Our children are not eating right and locked in 4-walls for close 250 days in a calendar year. Until you realize school is an indoctrination and prison you can never see sense in my statement |

Allotrope69:The position of mathematics teachers is always available in almost every schools 🏫, even in bigger schools as long as you know your onions, please leave a place that is not favourable for you... |

Life is simple. If you're displeased with your place of work. Try change it, if not working.. find another job |

They are telling you to quit you’re adamant and still fighting for a system that’s oppressing you and not treating you fine . You have been a year for 9 years and teach across 4 states in Nigeria but at the moment you’re earning 40k ? You really need to reevaluate.. it’s either you quit the school or with your experience look for a better school that pays well. There are teachers warning over 100k in Lagos, ogun, Abuja, PH The reason why I quoted this your comment is cos I hope someday in the future when you have kids and they start asking you what happened, you’re going to tell and explain to them exactly this comment you posted. You seems like a laid back kinda type of guy Allotrope69: |

Allotrope69:I love teaching, but can't practice it as my primary occupation. I admire your resilience. I'll advise you to look for job elsewhere. Employee satisfaction is one of the determinant of success in their job. As you're saying all these, you're obviously not happy. Look for job elsewhere where your contributions are appreciated more. That said, be like say you go be my founding principal for my school. I like your attitude. |

Allotrope69:So with these things to stated above, you choose to remain there cuz they don’t owe? You’re really the reason the school owner treats you the way she wants |

Allotrope69:With your mindset, you should not be a teacher. You may be smart when it comes to your subjects, but not when it comes to people. |
| Re: Why Are Private Schools Like This? by CHEMEASY(m): 8:08am On Nov 09, 2024 |
If I will advise you, that environment is very toxic. Find a better school while you are still there. There are many better schools in all ramifications. The last private school where I taught is the direct opposite of your experience. They pay very high and they have good moral standards. I think it's about the culture, tradition and ethics of the founders |

VinnyBaba:no problem, sir am a teacher and a trained one I worked personally with a retired professor of philosophy of education. He taught me study technology coined by one the compass people Lord Ron Hubbard . I learnt a lot from him during my days as an undergraduate and will always appreciate him till this day. I would have flogged Tiwa savage and davido as a teacher if they are spoilt. I go beat shege banza comot their body. And I know I will resign. Because am like Jose mourinho in the workspace I have never worked more than 2 years in an establishment. I get bored easily. No matter how much am paid. I always leave. Back to the point, laissez - faire approach to discipline has never worked in education you can ask anyone who is an educationist. Works for a short while when it backfires you will lose your respect and pedigree as a teacher. We were beaten in school did we die. We shouldn't bring western culture into our African culture. Traditional education which is a form of informal education it is important you flog and punish a child who defiant and stubborn. Make we stop this trend of spare the rod. This spoilt brat needs to be dealt with. Most of their parents don't give them the required basic home training. There is nothing like softer discipline. Even the form of softer discipline which B.F skinner is also not a soft discipline and it doesn't work on Nigerian students. Even in military settings they put the trainees under unfavorable conditions in order to get the best out of them. But some wings here want us us overpamper children by buying ice cream for them when they call me a stupid teacher |

As a school teacher if you are not happy with the school management. Stop complaining and open your own...... nobody is holding you back. Stop chastising the school management because the outcome is not in your favor. You even brought it to social media and this is a one sided story |
| Re: Why Are Private Schools Like This? by Success3593: 8:25am On Nov 09, 2024 |
We teachers give them the chance to treat us like that cos we are always scared of losing our job and they know the fear is in us. And to some of us comparing our system of learning here to uk and us, please let’s stop it cos that is one of our major problem in this country |

Kobojunkie:He must not assault and oppress people because he is a govt worker but at least,he won't be the victim or be at the mercy of greedy employers and their clients. I worked in 7 private hospitals in Nigeria and almost ran mad..I started feeling like a human being the moment I got into the government hospital. Besides,there is no future in private jobs. Op just has to quit |
| Re: Why Are Private Schools Like This? by Sola2010: 8:31am On Nov 09, 2024 |
I worked in a private school in Abeokuta,the most expensive school in the state at that time. The school proprietress made sure we have no time to apply to other school due to the staff plan she designed. You resume by 7am and close by 5pm. You can never have the time to attend interviews for other jobs. I was an OND holder at that time but thank God today,I have multiple degrees. I resigned from the school,wrote jamb and went to the university,i never allowed their mentality of their students are the future hold me down. Think about this too Also,there's nothing wrong in checking after your absent students. Please work on yourself. None of your students life is better than yours except you chosed it to be so. |

My friend, the problem is that we have baby parents this day. Somebody that supposed to be under a parent still receiving lectures on how to build homes are already doing parenting duties, that is why many marriages don't work nowadays. Go and visit these big big schools you will see, most of these students and pupils with these non challan attitudes are from break up homes. To some schools owner, all they care is to populate the school at the expense of their staff betterment. They even lie to their parents in case whereby a student is not doing well academically or morally just to maintain population. I don't want to write too much, I have seen a lot in private school settings, some are well disciplined that they will call a spade a spade and also other are on the contrary that they will keep deceiving their parents that their wards are making progress. |

The major issue in Nigeria is that teachers r poorly paid and less regarded but a teacher is meant to build a strong bond with his students and do all it takes to help them achieve success in their studies. Most of the Nigerian teachers lack these skills and professionalism in handling students. In advanced countries, the teacher/student relationship is mutual and cordial. Most of the teachers in Nigeria don't enjoy the job because society doesn't value them. Nobody cares about their welfare, they are like a rejected child that is the reason most of them are unhappy doing the job. |

Joybeau:I mean he might have been really stupid to put himself in that situation where his student will tell him to his face that he is stupid In all my days of teaching, I have yeah seen student trying to diss teachers but never see one tell a teacher to his face that that they are stupid The teacher must have been really stupid then |

Kobojunkie:I am done dragging with you because you are obviously missing the point. Western culture does not tolerate violence yet they keep killing themselves every now and then, and we see it on the News almost every month😂. Well, you are not used to reality but scripted movies in your corner. I will say it again, your are irredeemably stupid and there's nothing no one can do about it. THEY HAVE NO CULTURAL VALUES BUT WE HAVE OUR CULTURE HERE! LET THAT SINK INTO YOUR DUMBHEAD. You can train your kids the way you want. But please don't let them come my way or saner people's way if they are mannerless and rude because you wouldn't like the consequences of their actions. You and your kids will be severely dealt with, the hard way and you will learn. Whiteman asslicker is talking about how Nigeria is the only one with corruption issues and bad governance, please tell me why your lords have different political views and what they campaign with. WHEN YOUR LORD KAMALA WAS CAMPAIGNING, WHAT WAS SHE TALKING ABOUT AND USING AGAINST TRUMP? WHEN YOUR OTHER LORD TRUMP KEPT TALKING ABOUT INFLATION AND EXCESSIVE SPENDING OF THE GOVERNMENT WITH DAMAGING EFFECTS ON THE ECONOMY AND THE CITIZENS, WHAT'S THAT CALLED? IS THERE ANY PART OF THE WORLD THAT'S NOT BATTLING POOR GOVERNANCE? I AGREE WE LACK BASIC AMENITIES HERE BUT IS IT RELATED TO PROPER UPBRINGING OF LITTLE KIDS OR BAD GOVERNANCE AND CORRUPTION FROM ADULTS LIKE YOU THAT DON'T INSTILL FEAR AND DISCIPLINE ?Stop relating dirty politics with how to train mannerless children. If you like spare the rod, I will use it for you. Na better beating em dey use drive madness comot pikin body. Why mad man no dey ever challenge soldier? I'm done trying to make you have small sense. Whatever you type next, keep it for your kids. |

| Re: Why Are Private Schools Like This? by Amsty: 9:07am On Nov 09, 2024 |
Pls leave the school. There are absolutely many other reasonable schools that are earnestly in need of your service. Take the bold step and vamoose the useless school. Such schools breed criminals into the society. |

| Re: Why Are Private Schools Like This? by NoToPile: 9:13am On Nov 09, 2024 |
What I find amusing in this thread is the notion that all students who attend expensive schools are not disciplined. There are high end schools whose students know that there are consequences for actions and they wouldn't do such actions because of the consequences. Well mannered children exist in expensive schools too. When grooming a child and he/she knows there are no consequences for actions, you are heading for trouble In training that child. |
