My short patience of teaching my younger cousin was paid off
Hooray! It's been a week since my younger cousin was gone for vacation and i was so very happy because there's no stubborn here in the house pestering my inner peace because of her boredamn.
Being a older sister is so very though work for me because they are making me older in just a short span of time. My godness! If you are here at our house, you can't hear anything but my shout of angerness because of their stubborness. Not an anger without a reason okay? I am not a bad older cousin as what you are thinking. I am doing this as an pangaral or lesson and i also have a permission on their parents because they are not always around.
Yesterday, i shared to you that my younger cousin's Mom was go back to her usual work abroad. Her Father is also tbe same. He go to Dagupan, City and became a construction worker there. Before her Mom goes abroad, she said something and that is a huling habilin or last will as she was gone for years and no one can look after to her daughter. She wants us as her older Sister to guide her to study well and teach her when she doesn't know the lesson.
After some weeks that her mom goes abroad, My older Sister need to live and go back to Pozurrubio, Pangasinan because her boyfriend was living there and they also have a sari-sari store already plus, the place was just near in Urdaneta, City and my Sister is still studying so she can't struggle to ride back and forth when she will live there.
So, I am just the only one who was left here in our Grandparents and my responsibilities to take care my younger cousin is in my hand.
Last month, I shared to you this article: Make sure your child is still learning where i told you to let your child study on their own so that they can learn especially that face to face classes resumed. Months ago, I was the one who are answering their modules but after I published that article, I stop answering their modules starting from the third semester until their last sem. I stop answeing but i also reviewed their modules to teach them what i can and I also train them to TRY to answer the activity on their own to get used to it and my door of my room is open for them if they don't know/understand the activity.
Teaching them is a though work for me too because i told you that i only have a short patience. Meaning that once that they make a short mistake, or they didn't understand the lesson and i keep repeat and repeat and repeat what i discussed to them, I will...
When it comes to teaching, I am a terror Teacher. Of course, I also working how to handle my patience and my emotions but because of their stubborness, I am easy to be mad and my left eyebrow start to raise as a warning.
Well, it's not because i want them to suffer. I do understand that the pandemic- and they are just doing modules to study and they don't know the lesson that's why I am Teaching them right?
I have 3 students here: 1 Grade 6 and 2 both Grade 7 students. They are 3 so It's hard for me to teach them and help them on their modules.
But you know what makes me happy right now? As their Tutor at the same time cousin. I can't also believe that my Short patience was paid off because, my Younger cousin which is the female one and a daughter of my Aunt.
My Grandma is the one who goes to the school to attend to the meeting. My Aunt told me to go there today instead of my Grandma but I told them that i don't like because i don't know about attending meetings of parents.
Around 9 am something when my Grandma got home and she was happy to share that her grandchild is on the list of Top 10.
95.675 = 96 With High Honors
94.00 = 94 With honors
93.875 = 94 With Honors
93.625 = 94 With Honors
92.625 = 93 With Honors
91.250 = 91 With Honors
90.125 = 90 With Honors
89.750 = 90 With Honors
The rank list was not arranged by order of the rank and the two student which is the 9 or 10 was on the next page maybe because it was not fit in one page and for bigger and to see it clearly for the parents.
But anyways, My Younger cousin was in the rank 5 and she is with honors! I am so very proud because even though at the first semesters are from me, She still did some efforts in the last semester because she's the one who answers her modules and activities especially her Performance tasks (PT) and i just help her by Teaching her what she will do and to understand the lessons. Thanks to her long patience of having me as her Tutor even though, i am so very strict sometimes while Teaching them.
Conclusion...
I may be strict to my younger cousins but i never consider them as my enemy or i hate them for being the favorites of the elders. Even though these two cousins of mine (grade 7) are the daughters of the two children of my Grandparents and a siblings of my Mom became part of my bad or worsts memories in the past,if you remember this part
on my article: Why it is hard to live as a pyschopath?
They are their parents that i mentioned here. My Aunt slaped me before just because i use her bb cream to try and because i am a curious kid. Though, i experienced that just because of a simple reason as a kid, I still helped her and lend her some money to go in the abroad and i still care for her child. Even though, I experienced being slap into my upper head with my book of the father of the other grade 7 cousin of mine (eldest son of my grandma) just because of the reason that I don't know how to solve the math problem and pestering my sister before to teach me and even called me: BOBO or dumb, I still Teach his Child because his child inherit his being dumb Father too because he don't even know how to teach or help his child to his study. Lol even though, I don't like at first because I hated him until my last breath because i experienced that and It became one of my trauma, I still teach him because his Wife, beg me before.
See? Even if they are being like that to me, I still help them because It's their 'KARMA'. I never believe to this 'kasabihan' or saying from elders before: "Huwag mong gawin sa ibang tao kung ayaw mong mangyari sa anak mo." (Donβt do it to someone else if you donβt want it to happen to your child) but right now, I believed to this already.
I am not that bad to slap their child too just like what i experienced fro their Parents. All of what they just heared from me is a word that hurt their heart.
Well, Anyways, my short patience was paid off. I did make my Aunt's Daughter to be with honor this time and i hope it will continue- i mean, since they are now face to face next school year, I hope their child will continue to be in the top list. I will not Teach them again and i already did my part so, do their part to study well too now so that my Grandma will be not disappointed again since we are Kulelat or being in a low lists in her eyes. lol
Thanks for reading!
