It can be boring
sometimes when you have that routined life. Get up in the morning, go to
school, and back to home, next day again the same grind. Interestingly for me I
have always looked forward to my work every single day. I want to meet my
colleagues and get into the Oakridge mood but the most important feeling is,
knowing that I am going to meet my little grade 5 kids and have fun with them.
My other friends find it shocking when I say I miss my school and hence to
prove all of them, wrong that I am not the only person who feels this way about
Oakridge had to get in touch with others in school. So, I took few interviews
and here they are:
1st Interviewee Prabhjeet Kaur (Class teacher of VJ)
Me: Prabhjeet Ma’am, what is the best
thing about this school?
PK: My students.
Me: why so?
PK: They inspire me every day; there is
so much to learn from them. Quite a handful to handle but I enjoy any time with
my kids.
Me: What is that thing you don’t like in
here?
PK: I rather focus on the numerous great
things I see in Oakridge.
Me: Are you ever bored with your life or
your work?
PK: There’s no time, we are so busy so
getting bored is out of question… (chuckles). Honestly, teaching is a passion
and I am perfectly happy with myself and content with my work. I thank God for
that.
Me: One advice you would like to give me
as I am new here in this organization?
PK: Learn as much as possible and grab as
many opportunities that come your way and you will love your work.
2nd Interviewee Prabin Rai (class teacher of 7C)
Me: Prabin Sir, what is the best thing
about this school?
PR: I like my team, my core team who are
my coordinators and colleagues. Off course every person in this school is an
Oakridger and that we are all one team and I believe in that too. However, I
feel relaxed and very comfortable with the team that I deal with every day. I
would like to add another point here and that is Oakridge sees that your hard
work is not gone unnoticed. You will be appreciated for the effort you put into
your work.
Me: Why so?
PR: Like I said, my core team is
comforting and accommodating and very understanding.
Me: What is that thing you don’t like in
here?
PR: I feel sometime there is lot of time
is consumed to process anything in here. The Redtapism is evident here and I
know it happens because it’s a huge organization but I just wish if it was more
convenient.
Me: Are you ever bored with your life or
your work?
PR: NO. I love teaching and since it’s a
passion of mine, it has been very fulfilling.
Me: One advice you would like to give me
as I am new here in this organization?
PR: Just do your part and everything else
will fall into its right place. You will not be ignored and you will definitely
be appreciated for your contribution.
3rd Interviewee Sri Teja (student in class 5H)
Me:
what do you like about your school?
ST: My class teacher Pratik sir, my
friends and the learning I get here.
Me: what is that thing you don’t like in
here?
ST: I don’t know. I didn’t like school
much before until grade 4 but now I like everything. I also became a prefect so
it’s all good.
Me: Are you bored in school?
ST: Never Sir. I
have many good friends and I like all my teachers. However, I don’t like waking
up early on Monday morning. (Laughs off).
