Magic in Teaching

-

 


The saying 'Tell me and I'll know, teach me and I'll remember, involve me and I'll learn' emphasizes the importance of experiential learning. Hearing or reading information is a passive form of learning that may only result in temporary understanding. By contrast, active learning through teaching, practice, and experience can lead to deeper understanding and retention of knowledge. Involving students in hands-on learning activities allows them to apply knowledge and skills, making the learning process more engaging and effective.


Think about it: 'tell' is a fleeting memory, 'teach' sticks around for a while, but 'involve' makes learning last a lifetime. The secret sauce to deep, lasting knowledge isn't just hearing or reading, it's getting in there, hands-on, making mistakes and learning from them. That's when you really start cooking with gas!


So remember, for knowledge that sticks, don't just hear or read, get involved and really sink your teeth into it. That's when the magic happens.

  Being a mother is a unique journey filled with laughter, challenges, and immense love.  Reflecting on my own experiences, I have grown to appreciate the resilience of mothers everywhere.  One of the biggest hardships I have faced as a mother is balancing my responsibilities. Striving to be the best mother, wife, and professional can sometimes feel like an impossible task. There have been days when I felt overwhelmed, unsure if I could manage everything life was throwing at me. In those moments, I found peace in the support of my family and friends, who helped me realize that I didn't have to go through this journey alone. Another challenge I encountered was learning to put my daughter’s needs above my own. As a mother, it is important to prioritize the well-being of our child, even when it requires sacrifice. I remember the sleepless nights when I stayed awake, tending to my baby’s needs, and the countless times I chose to pursue my dreams later to ensure that I witness...

Dreams Do Come True ✨

As I sit down to write this blog, I cannot help but get emotional thinking about my journey to where I am today. For years, I struggled with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS), a hormonal disorder that can make it difficult for women to conceive and disrupt their menstrual cycle. The fear of never having children weighed heavy on my heart, but I always clung onto the hope that someday, my dream of becoming a mother would come true. But it did not end there. I had another dream, which was to have a responsible and loving husband who would understand and support me through thick and thin. While it may seem like an easy feat, I had been through my fair share of relationships that did not work out. All I can say is that I am forever grateful to God for making my dreams come true. All those years of waiting, praying, and hoping were worth it now as I gaze upon the most precious gift I have ever received. I want to encourage anyone reading this, especially those who may be facing similar chall...
