Learning Through Love
Weekend Prompt — Choose to learn through love
A teacher I respect has a mantra:
A student doesn’t doesn’t care what you know
Until they know that you truly care for them.
Please don’t tell me what to do.
Please let me know how to help.
For I choose to learn through love.
Please don’t tell me where to go.
Please ask me to walk along your side.
Please don’t tell me how to act.
Please model what you wish from me.
For I choose to learn through love.
Please don’t tell me what you want.
Please share what is your dream.
For part of dreams I wish to be.
Please don’t tell me you’re in charge.
Please put me on your team.
For a team means we share a goal.
Please don’t tell me where I rank.
Please make me feel a family.
For I will do more for a family I love.
Please don’t make me feel bad.
I learn much more when I am glad.
For I choose to learn through love.
