BEING A STUDENT

I have created this post to show you one of my articles. Being 14-years old, I may have made any mistakes. This article is special for me indeed among my other articles. Read my thoughts. Readers are requested to post a comment after reading the article so that I can gain knowledge and experiences.

THE ARTICLE OF
BEING A STUDENT

          This line is for who read this article that you are going to read the thoughts and incidents of the one, who wrote this, as a student. You might understand this article from my side. Maybe not. If you are the reader of this, have finished your School days, you might go through the past. I have included some of my histories here, as a student of my teachers and School. But remember that I have not completed my School life yet!

          I ask a question at the reader, if you have completed the School days. Do you miss your School ages? Most probably “yes ”, I think. From my little experience, I would say that those who have finished their School days by playing and enjoying, especially with their friends, are now worrying or missing their School life. School age is a golden age from my view. If I say this to my contemporaries, most of them might reply the opposite. It is the age to play, of course. But what will those who are not interested in playing so much at all do? I may be included in those. I am not exactly like that but don’t have any chances at all. I was in the mode of playing and enjoying, before one could change. The change I mentioned has two meanings. One is the year 2020 to 2022 in which the Corona attacked the entire world. We, the students, enjoyed the holidays for almost more than one year. I would say that the relation between those holidays to education or knowledge was inversely proportional.

          The second point, which was a great change in my current life in that time, was the change of my School. There, I changed myself entirely. New teachers, of course, new friends, new atmosphere, new experiences, etc… I have teachers to pass and friends for time-pass as well. I am doing this article as a student of that School. The School taught me some significant things. Even though my mother tongue is not English, I could prepare this in English. That is because of my English teachers. I am using the resources that I have in my School. One of the main and important resources, is the Teachers resource. The Chemistry lab as well! If you ask me what my favorite subject is, I shall say “Chemistry”. Even though, I don’t have the Chemistry subject in my syllabus. I like my Chemistry Teacher. When I was struggling to clear my doubts in Chemistry, I went at Him. He is the Chemistry Teacher of Higher secondary classes of our School. But I am not a higher secondary student. He is in a tight schedule. I could get a few chances to meet Him in a week. Before interacting and introduced with each other, He didn’t even allow me near Him. But after understanding, now my doubts in Chemistry are being cleared. My fellow students are afraid to speak at Him as He is a strict Teacher. Perhaps, they are afraid of being beaten or shouted by Him. But I would say that that is a great opportunity for me. That is because if my fellows start to speak at Him, my chances to speak and clear my doubts at Him would reduce. But I could not forget a Teacher.

          I don’t know whether to place Him under the Teachers category or not. Because He is not assigned as our Teacher yet. I forget to add His major subject. He is my Computer Teacher. He is remarkable for me because I would not be introduced the term “Programming language” without Him. I can write my own C programs now only because of him. I am not programmer yet! But just know some basics of C language. Learning the C language paved the way for me to see some other programming languages such as Python. Of course I am learning the basics of Python. Just like at our Chemistry Teacher, my fellows are afraid more to speak at my Computer Teacher. Just like at the Chemistry Teacher I struggled some more at Him to clear my doubts, which paved way for some sweet and little bitter events. Again I would say that I have given the opportunity to learn at Him. As no one likes to converse with Him at all, I am using that chance as possible as I could. I am using my teachers to complete my hungriness. But compared to the rate of clearing my doubts at teachers, English would come at the top. So far, my current English Teacher has dug out the English from me. My communication skill in English is being developed in a large way because of Him. After His arrival to our School, I learned large extensive things in English. But I could not converse with Him as the previous Teachers that I mentioned. Only in a moderate rate, I think. Because I am not the only student to use His resource.
          The only Teacher to communicate apart from the others is my current English Teacher. I have shared some of my stories written by me along with some of my friends at Him. This is for the readers that don’t think and ask for those stories! They don’t deserve to say at all anywhere and everywhere.
My interest in Mathematics was developed by my Mathematics Teacher when I was studying 7th standard in my School. Later, I got a remarkable Teacher. He is taking care of the Mathematics sapling inside me at present, which was planted by my previous Mathematics Teacher in the 7th standard.

          But I realized one thing that we have resources that is enough for us around us. I found some of them and those resources are being used by me at present. They are just near our hand but most of us are not using them. I am saying so from my observations at my fellows. I could share some little bits of my histories because I am just a student now. I have not seen the entire life yet. But one is true that, I shall wish to be a student for my teachers, forever. And by saying this, I end my very first article.

Being a student,
