Don't hate your teachers for asking you a better output. They believe you can do better.
Don't hate them for asking you to do more than you think you can. They trust your abilities.
Don't hate them for lecturing about your absences and inappropriate attitude. They want you to become a good, responsible person.
Don't hate them for encouraging you to keep dreaming and work hard for it. They want a bright future ahead of you.
Don't hate them for requiring you to beat deadlines. They want you to learn that time is precious.
Don't hate them for being angry when you cheat. They want you to be independent, honest and self-reliant.
Don't hate them for being too hard at times. They want you to know that the world outside is not at all times easy.
Don't hate them for reprimanding you over wasted chalks. They want you to know the value of things, even the littlest of things.
Don't hate them for giving you an honest low grade than faking a good grade for you to feel fine. They want you to know that you need to do better, if not the best, and that achievement is earned; not begged for.
Don't hate me for being your teacher. I just want a better version of you who keep growing at every beautiful encounter in school, big or small. You have become a part of me. 😊
