I had only been a substitute teacher of Yamsa-ard Group of School in Pathumthani, Thailand, under the Extra English Program for Prathum 2 classes for 3 months; though short my stay would seem, I could honestly share that I fell in love with the students primarily. My students were really knowledge-hungry. I saw in their eyes and by way of their reaction towards me as their teacher that they really thirst on learning English as a secondary language and thus, they were very attentive to our daily lesson. Contrary to most Pure-Thai classes, the 7 classes I handled were very obedient though outspoken when it comes to discussions, group exercises plus singing and drawing activities. I admit that teaching carries great responsibilities in moulding, nurturing and enhancing the outlook, the behavior, the way of life and the future of the students; but when it comes to receiving positive feedbacks from students and personally witnessing their growth both as an individual and as a student, wow! that was a very fulfilling experience for a teacher and all of those hardwork and pressures were all worth it.
