Corps member boasts of improving students’ performance, receives rice, oil, and cash gift from PPA
A youth corps member brags about his teaching skills, explaining how he improved students’ performance and received a bag of rice, groundnut oil, and a cash gift from his Place of Primary Assignment, PPA for his outstanding work.
In a detailed post shared on X, formerly known as Twitter, the corps member recounted his experience, highlighting a particular student who surprised him by achieving a distinction despite initial fears of failure, thanks to his dedicated tutoring.
“Finished marking their scripts today, and they actually performed so well. There was this particular boy I was worried might fail. I would invite him to the staff room to repeat lessons for him. He got a distinction, and no student failed,” he wrote.
He further expressed frustration over the NYSC allowance, claiming he deserves more for his efforts: “NYSC does not deserve me. 33k. Sigh. 🤧”
According to him, his PPA appreciated his dedication by gifting him cash, a large container of groundnut oil, and a bag of rice as a Christmas token. “My PPA said, ‘Thank you for being a good teacher to our students and Merry Christmas in advance.’ ☺️”
He also shared how his students mimicked him during the school’s end-of-year party, even though he wasn’t present.
“At the Xmas party today, students were asked to mimic their favorite teachers, and I was mimicked. Funny thing is, I wasn’t even there, so colleagues were demonstrating what they did for me. Now the school board knows who I am.”
The post sparked reactions from social media users who praised his commitment while sharing their thoughts in the comments section.
