One of the qns for today's MOE survey: Your teachers understand you.
A ) Strongly Agree
B ) Agree
C ) Disagree
D ) Strongly Disagree

it got me thinking.. haaz.. if things can happen the other way round.. if my secondary sch teachers are reversed with my JC teachers.. will I still like my secondary school teachers? Will they understand me as they do during my sec sch days? How about my JC tutors? Will they change their opinion of me? Will I get to like them better?

Actually, Angel raised a good point today.. More often than not, we grumble that we cannot get a JC tutor who really understand and care for us.. Things just aren't the same for sec sch and JC.. All the tutors are always so busy and we only get to see them during the fixed tutorials and remedials.. They are just like ppl whom u see only during fixed timings and disappeared after that.. Nobody cares to attend any class gatherings and we dun bother to ask them anyway since they weren't close with the class in the 1st place.. If any of our friends are close to any of the tutor, we sort of envy them cos at least they have one more adult choice to confide in if they encounter problems.. unlike us who are all alone..

However, we have our fair share of blaming the problem on the teachers. Maybe it is time we should do some self reflection ourselves. Why do we think that they dun understand us as much as our sec sch/ pri sch teachers do? Is it because we have changed our persectives of viewing things? Our critera for 'understanding' has become more stringent? Teachers cannot merely coax us with a few praises.. we start to want to have our way of doing things which may be deemed unacceptable by the adults.. We pon lessons, giving them unnecessary trouble.. We get irritated easily when they nagged at us just for some what we called minor mistakes.. We are no more obedient kids and no longer have the same way of thinking as them. Since we shared different perceptions, we can only be regarded as troublemakers. These contribute largely to the fact that we think they dun really understand us..

It takes 2 hands to clap.. and problems can't occur if there weren't 'co-operation' from both sides.. Hence, we really aren't completely right and teachers are completely in the wrong either.. Our current mindset are still rebellious.. We feel like challenging any instructions given, questioning every decision that is made by the adults. We wish to try the consequences of disobeying them. What to do? After all, we are still growing up..

So, after so much, can u guess my answer for the question in the beginning of the entry? hahaz..
