Teacher's Prayer

[Emily]

Teacher's Prayer
By James J.Melcalf

I want to teach my students how to live this life on earth,
To face its struggle and its strife and improve their worth.
Not just the lesson in a book or how the rivers flow,
But how to choose the proper path wherever they may go.
To understand eternal truth and know the right from wrong,
And gather all the beauty of a flower and a song.
For if I help the world to grow in wisdom and in grace,
Then, I shall feel that I have won and I have filled my place.
And so I ask my guidance, God, that I may do my part,
For character and confidence and happiness of heart.

If we helped our students how to choose the proper path wherever they may go we would have been great teachers

But only few do that

Thanks Emily

English poem


realy nice one
some of the teachers realy dosen't care and their only interest is to teach what 's in the book and that's all
that's how to do their job
at the end we can't force them to teach us more than what they have to do..

thanks all
