Hello everyone am here again on a good Monday with a life time experience that happened to me which motivated me.
Back then in secondary school we had a peer of friends where everyone had their own peer of friends like the group the belong to, you would see them chit chatting when they had free times everybody excitingly bring up topic to gist about.
The girls are fond of gossiping as the boys would say, those times were the best of my secondary school days I always wish for those moments to come but the worst moment in school was when a teacher would come with cane to flog those who didn't pass or do their assignment.
We had already classified them into places for instance the kind ones and the extremely harsh ones those who flog at any slightest opportunity the get, some of them would punish you in front of the class or take you outside the class to do that's.
One Wednesday before break time, one of our teacher entered the class to share his test script ( the ones we had already written and it's already marked) he called out a set of names and asked them to move forward, some of us thought it was meant for those who passed.
It simply means it was those who passed that were called to stand before the class, the teacher kept on calling people names and they kept on coming outside until he finally stopped and turned to face the students that remained sited in their sits.
No one was aware of what is going to happen next, when he turned and faces them he found and that they were only few in numbers and he just Shaked his head while smiling, he then turned back to us that was standing in front of the class and started sharing our test books.
After he was done he turned and shared for the rest of the students sitting their test books too, he then asked us to open it. It was at that point that we knew what was happening, he had asked us to step out because we scored below average.
He told us to step out to the assembly ground, we got there and he said we should lie down on the floor facing our heads on the floor, you could just imagine how we felt considering that the assembly ground was outside on the hot sun.
After 30mins he came back and told us to stand up and frog jump to our classes, we spent our whole break doing that punishment after we entered our class he came and addressed us saying he did that to motivate us to try better next time and that anybody that went below average next time would serve a worse punishment.
Trust me in his next test I did better, infact I was one of the top five best I didn't know how it happened but among me and my friends we used our free periods to study better rather than to gist.
It really had an impact on us, because we didn't want to be disgraced in public like that next time we put in our bests, not only in his subject but in others
Thanks for staying through and reading to the end, your compliments would really be appreciated.
