Re: Strictly For Those Interested In Teaching Jobs by Nobody: 6:17pm On Dec 02, 2014

Learn a thing or two from the write up below:



Despite this marching order given to us by our
client, we still went ahead to disqualify about ten percentage of the total application received. In our opinion, these applicants are not ready for employment at all. Their presentation was below any acceptable standard. Even secondary school students dare not present such documents and expect to pass WAEC examination! Those kinds of people will give us problem during the selection
process.

If we are to be very strict in following the laid down rules and regulations, we are not sure if we can get up to half of the two hundred applicants needed. This is a very sad development indeed. Yet people
complain of scarcity of job and the few jobs available, most graduates are either not qualified or ill prepared.

Let us be honest with ourselves, go back to your
documents sent to us and assess yourself based on the following indices:
*Did you follow the instruction to use a particular
caption as subject of your e-mail to us?
*Did you write a formal cover letter applying for the specific position we advertised or you just forwarded your CV to us as one of the numerous.organisations you did similar thing to? Is your CV comprehensive and presentable – devoid of typographical
errors?

From the documents sent to us, are you sure.you are qualified for the post you applied for based on the requirements specified in the advert? Mind
you, we are not university; we want people who can be shown a process within few days and are independent thereafter.
Do you think you can pass our science-based
aptitude test if you are asked
to take it?

For instance, many did not follow a simple
instruction on how to reply us – USE THE TITLE OF OUR ADVERT AS SUBJECT OF YOUR MAIL. Some sent applications not meant for us, while some wrote long epistles as cover letter which we are not
prepared to read. Phone numbers were missing
in the CV of some and we observed a lot of typographical errors such as.spelling, the use of small letters where capital letters should have been used.e.t.c. If we are to do the right thing, no matter how good you are, we should have disqualified you from onset once you fail to follow our rules.

You can see what we are passing through as Consultants dealing with “graduates” not primary school pupils. You can equally see why so many.graduates apply for job and did not get reply! Mind you, we have not seen your face to see whether you are fine. Neither had you spoken to us to know whether you speak good English. The only thing we.rely upon at this stage to assess you is the.quality of your presentation. Your cover letter and CV represent you in our bid to access you. Once these are not well prepared, it’s like presenting yourself in.a rag before a panel.

Your document is like product package (label, carton,.packet, wrapper etc). If the package is not attractive to the eye, nobody will.care to pick it from the shelf even if the product is found to be good. For instance, the packaging of ORIJIN bitter.drink from Guinness is too attractive to be.ignored; yet the product itself might be worse than others in that category.

25 Things Successful Teachers Do Differently
by Julie DuNeen
If you ask a student what makes him or her successful in school, you
probably won’t hear about some fantastic new book or video lecture series.
Most likely you will hear something like, “It was all Mr. Jones. He just never
gave up on me.”
What students take away from a successful education usually centers on a
personal connection with a teacher who instilled passion and inspiration for
their subject. It’s difficult to measure success, and in the world of academia,
educators are continually re-evaluating how to quantify learning. But the first
and most important question to ask is:
Are teachers reaching their students? Here are 25 things successful
educators do differently.
25 Things Successful Teachers Do Differently
1. Successful teachers have clear objectives
How do you know if you are driving the right way when you are traveling
somewhere new? You use the road signs and a map (although nowadays it
might be SIRI or a GPS). In the world of education, your objectives for your
students act as road signs to your destination. Your plan is the map. Making
a plan does not suggest a lack of creativity in your curriculum but rather,
gives creativity a framework in which to flourish.
2. Successful teachers have a sense of purpose
We can’t all be blessed with “epic” workdays all the time. Sometimes, life is
just mundane and tedious. Teachers with a sense of purpose that are able to
see the big picture can ride above the hard and boring days because their
eye is on something further down the road.
3. Successful teachers are able to live without immediate feedback
There is nothing worse than sweating over a lesson plan only to have your
students walk out of class without so much as a smile or a, “Great job
teach!” It’s hard to give 100% and not see immediate results. Teachers who
rely on that instant gratification will get burned out and disillusioned.
Learning, relationships, and education are a messy endeavor, much like
nurturing a garden. It takes time, and some dirt, to grow.
4. Successful teachers know when to listen to students and when to ignore
them
Right on the heels of the above tip is the concept of discernment with student
feedback. A teacher who never listens to his/her students will ultimately fail.
A teacher who always listens to his/her students will ultimately fail. It is no
simple endeavor to know when to listen and adapt, and when to say, “No-
we’re going this way because I am the teacher and I see the long term
picture.”
5. Successful teachers have a positive attitude
Negative energy zaps creativity and it makes a nice breeding ground for fear
of failure. Good teachers have an upbeat mood, a sense of vitality and
energy, and see past momentary setbacks to the end goal. Positivity breeds
creativity.
6. Successful teachers expect their students to succeed
This concept is similar for parents as well. Students need someone to
believe in them. They need a wiser and older person to put stock in their
abilities. Set the bar high and then create an environment where it’s okay to
fail. This will motivate your students to keep trying until they reach the
expectation you’ve set for them.
7. Successful teachers have a sense of humor
Humor and wit make a lasting impression. It reduces stress and frustration,
and gives people a chance to look at their circumstances from another point
of view. If you interviewed 1000 students about their favorite teacher, I’ll bet
95% of them were hysterical.
8. Successful teachers use praise authentically
Students need encouragement yes, but real encouragement. It does no good
to praise their work when you know it is only 50% of what they are capable
of. You don’t want to create an environment where there is no praise or
recognition; you want to create one where the praise that you offer is
valuable BECAUSE you use it judiciously.
9. Successful teachers know how to take risks
There is a wise saying that reads, “Those who go just a little bit too far are
the ones who know just how far one can go.” Risk-taking is a part of the
successful formula. Your students need to see you try new things in the
classroom and they will watch closely how you handle failure in your risk-
taking. This is as important as what you are teaching.
10. Successful teachers are consistent
Consistency is not to be confused with “stuck.” Consistency means that you
do what you say you will do, you don’t change your rules based on your
mood, and your students can rely on you when they are in need. Teachers
who are stuck in their outdated methods may boast consistency, when in fact
it is cleverly-masked stubbornness.
11. Successful teachers are reflective
In order to avoid becoming the stuck and stubborn teacher, successful
educators take time to reflect on their methods, their delivery, and the way
they connect with their students. Reflection is necessary to uncover those
weaknesses that can be strengthened with a bit of resolve and
understanding.
12. Successful teachers seek out mentors of their own
Reflective teachers can easily get disheartened if they don’t have someone a
bit older and wiser offering support. You are never too old or wise for a
mentor. Mentors can be that voice that says, “Yes your reflections are
correct,” or “No, you are off because….” and provide you with a different
perspective.
13. Successful teachers communicate with parents
Collaboration between parents and teachers is absolutely crucial to a
student’s success. Create an open path of communication so parents can
come to you with concerns and you can do the same. When a teacher and
parents present a united front, there is a lower chance that your student will
fall through the cracks.
14. Successful teachers enjoy their work
It is easy to spot a teacher who loves their work. They seem to emanate
contagious energy. Even if it on a subject like advanced calculus, the subject
comes alive. If you don’t love your work or your subject, it will come through
in your teaching. Try to figure out why you feel so unmotivated and
uninspired. It might have nothing to do with the subject, but your
expectations. Adjust them a bit and you might find your love of teaching
come flooding back.
15. Successful teachers adapt to student needs
Classrooms are like an ever-evolving dynamic organism. Depending on the
day, the attendance roster, and the phase of the moon, you might have to
change up your plans or your schedule to accommodate your students. As
they grow and change, your methods might have to as well. If your goal is to
promote a curriculum or method, it will feel like a personal insult when you
have to modify it. Make connecting with your student your goal and you’ll
have no trouble changing it up as time moves on.
16. Successful teachers welcome change in the classroom
This relates to the above tip, but in a slightly different way. Have you ever
been so bored with your house or your bedroom, only to rearrange it and have
it feel like a new room? Change ignites the brain with excitement and
adventure. Change your classroom to keep your students on their toes.
Simple changes like rearranging desks and routines can breathe new life in
the middle of a long year.
17. Successful teachers take time to explore new tools
With the advance of technology, there are fresh new resources and tools that
can add great functionality to your classroom and curriculum. There is no
doubt that the students you are teaching (far younger than you) probably
already use technologies you haven’t tapped into yet. Don’t be afraid to push
for technology in the classroom. It is often an underfunded area but in this
current world and climate, your students will be growing up in a world where
technology is everywhere. Give them a headstart and use technology in your
classroom.
18. Successful teachers give their students emotional support
There are days when your students will need your emotional support more
than a piece of information. Connecting to your students on an emotional
level makes it more likely that they will listen to your counsel and take your
advice to heart. Students need mentors as much as they need teachers.
19. Successful teachers are comfortable with the unknown
It’s difficult to teach in an environment where you don’t know the future of
your classroom budget, the involvement of your student’s parents, or the
outcome of all your hard work. On a more philosophical level, educators who
teach the higher grades are tasked with teaching students principles that
have a lot of unknowns (i.e. physics). How comfortable are you with not
having all the answers? Good teachers are able to function without
everything tied up neatly in a bow.
20. Successful teachers are not threatened by parent advocacy
Unfortunately, parents and teachers are sometimes threatened by one
another. A teacher who is insecure will see parent advocacy as a threat.
While there are plenty of over-involved helicopter parents waiting to point
out a teacher’s mistakes, most parents just want what’s best for their child.
Successful educators are confident in their abilities and not threatened when
parents want to get into the classroom and make their opinions known. Good
teachers also know they don’t have to follow what the parent recommends!
21. Successful teachers bring fun into the classroom
Don’t be too serious. Some days, “fun” should be the goal. When students
feel and see your humanness, it builds a foundation of trust and respect. Fun
and educational aren’t mutually exclusive either. Using humor can make
even the most mundane topic more interesting.
22. Successful teachers teach holistically
Learning does not happen in a vacuum. Depression, anxiety, and mental
stress have a severe impact on the educational process. It’s crucial that
educators (and the educational model) take the whole person into account.
You can have the funniest and most innovative lesson on algebra, but if your
student has just been told his parents are getting a divorce, you will not
reach him.
23. Successful teachers never stop learning
Good teachers find time in their schedule to learn themselves. Not only does
it help bolster your knowledge in a certain subject matter, it also puts you in
the position of student. This gives you a perspective about the learning
process that you can easily forget when you’re always in teaching mode.
24. Successful teachers break out of the box
It may be a self-made box. “Oh I could never do that,” you say to yourself.
Perhaps you promised you’d never become the teacher who would let
students grade each other (maybe you had a bad experience as a kid).
Sometimes the biggest obstacle to growth is us. Have you built a box around
your teaching methods? Good teachers know when it’s time to break out of
it.
25. Successful teachers are masters of their subject
Good teachers need to know their craft. In addition to the methodology of
“teaching”, you need to master your subject area. Learn, learn, and never
stop learning. Successful educators stay curious.
