Help them become what they are capable of becoming

"Treat people as if they were what they ought to be and you help them become what they are capable of becoming." – Goethe

Most classrooms in the public school on Guam filled with diverse learners from different cultures. Teachers need to consider differences among the students and respect their cultures. Treat all the students in the classroom equally as one to make them feel they are all equal and have the same opportunity to learn. This might help build the language-minority students’ self confidence. Doing so, students will have competence in doing what they ought to be and become what they are capable of becoming.

quote from Buddhist proverb

"If a seed of a lettuce will not grow, we do not blame the lettuce. Instead, the fault lies with us for not having nourished the seed properly." - Buddhist proverb

If a child cannot learn the lesson the way we teach it, try different strategies to make the students learn. The fault is lies with teacher for not having a proper way of teaching our students. Teachers! Let’s nourish our students by teaching them properly so they can become what they want to be in their future.
