Student Council: Happy Teacher’s Day!
On behalf of the EAST Community, the Student Council has sent words of appreciation to their Teachers @ EAST:
To all the Teachers at EAST,
Knowing that each one of you is following God’s calling for your lives, I want to express my deepest gratitude as a student. I’ve witnessed your tireless efforts to provide us with the best possible learning experience, going the extra mile to support those who need extra help. Your commitment to not only teaching your subjects but also nurturing our relationship with God is truly inspiring. May God continue to sustain and to give you strength and joy, so that you cannot help but praise him for his goodness. –Sebastian, Secretary (Student Council)
Dr Alvin Tey: Teaching (and Learning) to Transform Lives
A blessed Teacher’s Day to all! And I do mean to all, as I am sure that all of us are teachers in one way or another!
Teaching is a calling. It is a calling not merely to impart knowledge and experiences, but to transform lives. Mirroring the Great Commandment (Mark 12:30) to love God with all our heart, soul, mind and strength, and the Second Commandment (Mark 12:31) to love others as ourselves, teaching is meant to be holistic in nature. The aim of teaching is firstly to transform the whole life, to love God more and more with our heart, soul, mind and strength, and secondly to transform us to love and serve others. Importantly, even as we are individually called to teach in our different capacities and different seasons of our lives, we are also called to learn and grow as in our walk with God (see Deuteronomy 4:10 and Proverbs 9:9).
