attention UBCO

  • To All of the nursing faculty at UBCO,

    First off we need to say how sorry we are. Here are the following reasons why we are sorry:

    - That we didn’t pay more attention in class
    - That we complained about the amount of notes
    - That we asked the question ‘what is going to be on the exam??’
    - That we talked in class, passed notes and pretty much acted like children
    - That we complained about having to buy textbooks
    - We may have ‘put our heads down to rest’ a few times in class
    - That we got frustrated when you couldn’t answer our questions
    - That we kept asking you ‘why do we need to know this??’
    - That we laughed when you had ‘technical difficulties’ with your computers

    We did not appreciate how much prep work you put into all of your classes, the extra time spent meeting with us after hours, and taking the time to listen to our concerns. Sometimes all we want to do is shake our students and say ‘what more do want from me??’ What we have realized is that as a teacher ALL you want to do is make your students succeed. We get it. We finally get it!
    So what we are trying to say is how truly grateful we are for EVERYTHING you have done to help us to succeed and lead us to this point. You shaped us into the nurses and teachers that we are today.


    Love

Your Nana is here and we read your Blog with tears. You are real missionaries serving your fellowman. Just remember Africans do not read clocks too well. Frustrating I know but they will have learned at a slower pace
Nana says HANG IN THERE
God bless you and keep you well Prayers Lenora
