Hello everyone. Welcome to my blog.
When I was a young child we used to watch a program on the Nigeria television Authority (NTA) every Thursday(Super story). At the end of each episode, the narrator will say " Wale Adenuga production we are nothing but pencils in the hand of the creator". Indeed we are pencils in the hand of the creator because while we plan to do things the creator have a way of either planning with us or having another plan for us.
It made no sense to me till it was time to choose a career path. My primary and secondary education went with thier hicups like relocation, change of school and having to repeat a class or two but i scaled through.
Throughout my Senior Secondary School education I have always wanted to work in the media house either as a reporter or a news caster. The motivation came from people around me like my aunt who always complian that I talk too much to my mum who takes her time to listen to my endless stories whenever I go to hers during holidays
I wrote my WAEC and passed in all the subjects I needed to study mass communication in readiness for JAMB the following year. While waiting for JAMB form to be in sales my mum suggested I tried a college of education in our state that was saleing a form called regularization form and I did.
Fortunately, I was offered an admission to study primary education study(PES) also know as early childhood education(ECD) in the college of education. I was advised to grab the opportunity with both hands because age was not on my side and who knows, Jamb may not favour me.
By the time JAMB form was on sales, it was almost the end of the second semester but i wrote it anyways with the aim of foregoing the NEC once my admission into the university works out.
After writing the jamb and making the cut off mark, my parents particularly my mum insisted that she wants me to school in a place not too far from home. She found a way to convince me to please wait and round up the program before going to the university so the money and invested energy will not be a waste.
By the end of the second year of the program I went for teaching practice exercise, though it was stressful but I enjoyed every bit of it. From getting to know the pupils to sorting of note books, lesson note preparation and class management to mention few.
After the teaching practice,I sat down and had a deep thought may, just maybe God wants me to be a communicator with children and that was the conviction I had that made me to embrace this Carrer path.
Each time I hear success stories from my present or past pupils and students my heart always leap with joy. With this I believe I am thriving in my chosen career. I strongly believe I am on a mission to communicate and impact knowledge in toldders, pre-tenagers and tenagers and I am ready to face all the obstacles on the mission with boldness and perseverance.
All images are mine.
Thanks for reading till the end.
