Growing seeds

Growing Seeds

Our work as teachers is mainly that of an agricultural. We have to see our students as seeds that need to be care, rather than empty recipients to be filled. If we take care of "our" seeds, they will grow and bloom. We have to provide them with the appropriate environment, soil, irrigation and sunlight for them to grow. Let´s see them as all different kinds of seeds that will be different in shape but beautiful at the end. Never let our seeds die. Our job is to guide them and help them grow, we will see that they'll shine with their own light at the end.
