It’s worth noting that this topic brings back fond memories of my childhood, when I was at primary school. The school was just three blocks from my mother’s house; it’s incredible that it’s still there, shaping the future professionals of our country. I remember that I found maths a bit difficult; my mother had to sit down at home to explain it to me, and when she asked me questions to see if I’d understood, it was my little brother—who hadn’t even started school yet—who answered.
Later, when I moved up to Year 3, I had a teacher who couldn’t make head nor tail of maths, until she went on sick leave and they brought in a supply teacher. As soon as he arrived, he began explaining the maths topics, and all the pupils—myself included—understood them perfectly, achieving marks of nineteen and even twenty. When the substitute’s time was up, the teacher returned and we were back to not understanding what she was explaining; I imagine she lacked a bit of teaching skill to reach the students.
When I moved up to sixth form, it was as if a light bulb went on in my head; I had no trouble with maths and science, and I was doing really well, as there were excellent teachers in all the different subjects. In my third year, I had to choose between two subjects: electricity or agriculture. As I really liked plants, I chose agriculture. It turned out that I’d thought it would be purely practical, but the teacher taught nothing but theory and very little practical work in the field, which bored me, and I later regretted choosing agriculture.
To conclude, a few years ago my boss—who is the regional coordinator for educational IT in the local education authority—sent me on a course in animation using the Blender programme. It turned out that the instructor wasn’t a teacher but a specialist who was very skilled with the software. The other participants on the course already had experience, whereas I had none, and to make matters worse, I couldn’t understand a word he was saying, I just sat there unable to do anything because I couldn’t make head nor tail of it.
Also, in the third week, I explained to my boss that I couldn’t continue with the course because I would then have to pass on everything I’d learnt. It’s important to have that teaching approach in order to get the information across to the students.
I hope you liked it, see you in a next post.
