our father use to say, what an elder see from where he sit, if a child climb ìrókò tree he won't see it.
Avicky you ain't a kid, It's okay.
Bí omodé bá láso bí àgbà, kò le ní àkísà bí àgbà.
You don't show to a child what makes you an elder.

Thanks dear.

Hello guys! its been ages!

Been doing more of reading than commenting coz of my busy schedule. but am back fully now.

Early last month, just before i travelled to my school in the East to process my transcript, i had reached an advanced stage in a teaching job chase with a top school in Festac to teach Biology. In fact, we had already discussed salary (30k every month, even during holidays) so i was so confident that i had clinched the job already.

I waited and waited for their call asking me to resume work, but none was forthcoming. So i had to call the man that interviewed me so as to know whats up. He asked me to come and see him claiming that the school authorities decided to take action by next term.

With a revived hope, i went to see him. It was then that he bluntly told me that they had employed the other person that came after me. he told me that i was the first choice, but i shot myself in the leg by saying something i ought not to have said.

During the interview with the owner of the school and in the presence of the man, i was severally asked if i had plans of leaving soon. They bluntly told me how displeased they had been and would be with teachers who leave immediately after employment as this usually disorganize them considering it was a man's business. I consistently said No. However, i later on told them of my intentions to run a part time M.Sc programme in Unilag by next year. i honestly thought this would impress them as it would add more value to their school that another of their teachers is a Masters degree holder.

But that was my utter undoing.

The man told me that i shouldnt have said that. that the owner of the school immediately blacklisted me as she was scared that if they employ me i would leave soon. He further said that the woman they employed instead of me was a married woman with a child who is obviously going to be with them for a long time.

My feelings was a mixture of surprise and unhappiness.

Am back to Lagos fully now and hope to begin the teaching job search this holiday. Now i know the typical picture private schools wants to see in a job applicant.

chai........smtin bettr is in God's plan.

avicky:
Awwwww. Pele. At least you have learnt your lesson. Private schools don't want your progress to hinder theirs. Even if you are nurturing that ambition, please keep it to yourself.

Bro, God will do a better one. Start submitting soft and hard copies as the term is gradually coming to an end.

Duty calls. Go and hug your teddy bear. Your boo dog will locate you soon or better still do the hunting.

I am done bandying words with a low life like you. Sleep tight. Abi bon appétit since you're sipping your zobo drink.

This is deadly

On dis same thread i v really learnt alot, series of advice u pple v shared n it has really helped me. But d way n manner some of us talk to ourselves on dis same thread is so disappointing. To b factual, some individuals v earned ma respect while odas v totally lost it.

Personally i think we sud b careful with d way we correct ourselves. Nobody is an highland of knowledge. Inasmuch as I v no problem with someone correcting ma mistakes however it sud b done in a proper n matured way.

Even in class wen i teach ma students, dey correct me @times (mayb wen m writing on d board or d way i pronounce words esp wen dey just finished avin deir diction class), dt doesn't mean m a bad teacher, it jus signifies dt m a human being dt can make mistakes @anytime.

pls abeg, make una stop dis fight ooooo.

CaptainDo:
I do not know why you are teaching? Whatever reason(s) that brought you into this profession, I believe you deserve a good pay. Some of us receive 10k-40k, others 50k-70k, others 80k-120, others 130k-150k and others 150k-k's. All these categories of remunerations are available but you need few things to get a good one.
1. Determination and Focus- be determined and focused. Start somewhere and aim/target big. I started teaching job with 10k.
2. Be unique- Do not always do your things as usual. I could remember I payed for website hosting in August and put the website in my CV. It gave edge over others. I wrote a novel which I showed the manuscript to my interviewer.
3. Take Risk-Leave your comfort zone and try new things. I was teaching in Mainland-from 10k to 16k to 38k and 100k(Lekki) after a month 20k added(120k now). But how many of us can abandon 2 months salary of 38k(76k) to pursue an unsure job? Yes, I did it when my employer wanted to use it to hold me .
Leave your comfort zone- there are schools here in Lekki, Ikoyi, VI, Ajah that you can fit in perfectly into. The School that is paying me 120k just started with 14 students.

Please can you help me with any school in need of a science teacher in lekki,ajah or ikoyi that also has accommodation for teachers
