There is a typical "Mr. Agu" around. Passionate, knowledgeable but POOR. Do you know him?
Mr. Agu, a high school teacher in Lagos, was known for his passion for teaching, but also for his constant complaints about his "wicked school proprietors, salary and hardlife. Despite his dedication to his students, he refused to take any certificate courses or training, claiming they were a waste of time and money.
As the years went by, Mr. Agu watched as his colleagues who had invested in professional development moved up the career ladder, earning better pay and taking on leadership roles. Meanwhile, he remained stuck in the same position, feeling underappreciated and overworked.
One day, he joined a WhatsApp group of progressive school teachers. The community offered a training programs that would lead to a significant salary increase and career advancement opportunities. Mr. Agu scoffed at the idea, saying, "I've been teaching for years, I know what I'm doing." "The people just want to collect our money jare, it's not by certificate but sabificate."
The moral of the story is clear: teachers, don't wait for opportunities to come to you - create them by investing in your own professional growth.
