Give yourself up to those who need you. There are people out there who are not as lucky as a lot of people. They were those who have not had the chance to get an education at a young age. They actually are illiterate, not having the simple ability to read or write because they were unfortunate enough to have not having the opportunity to do so. And because of that, it is up to volunteers to step up and do Literacy Volunteering Opportunities In Eastside Detroit.
This makes it our job, as those lucky ones to have received an education, to give them a leg up. We all are the same creatures created by God so we should never be selfish in our knowledge. We ought to give a hand and also volunteer in helping them how to read and how to write. In this society, it almost is impossible to belong if one cannot read and write.
That does not mean they cannot be taught though. They still can although it might be a bit harder. Those with teaching experiences can understand that teaching older people is a bit harder because they have grown to develop pride and may get a bit hurt when teachers tell them they are doing something wrong.
Unlike adults whose minds have developed enough to build barriers against new things to absorb. Then again, children can be difficult too, since they have the attention span of squirrels most of the time. You can rarely find a child actually willing to learn and be attentive. Still, teachers were made to need patience so it should not be so hard.
Adults are another story. They can brag about having a lot more patience unlike the children, but they cannot get rid of the fact that they will have a harder time. This is due to their brains being older and being very difficult to adapt to new things. This is equal to a standard American man trying to learn a different language.
Not everyone is slow and not everyone is very intelligent. If everyone had been the same with equal brain capacities, then the teachers would not have a hard time with their jobs. Gauging their capabilities is what they do and it literally is THEM that adapts to the learning process of their students.
This is why adults are harder to be taught because they would have a hard time adapting. This mostly is why they likely are harder to teach in reading, as silly as it seems. You would think that since they are older and could understand better than kids that they are the easiest to teach. That actually is not the case most of the time.
Just because they talk does not mean that is all there is to it. Students have to learn or else what is the point of even teaching in the first place? They should have a lot of focus as well as patience on their part because this is not a one way kind of interaction. Teachers do their hardest to give out so students so receive properly.
Same goes with people who have not written a single thing for as long as they have lived. So for those willing to lend their experiences for free, have patience. That is what a teacher is best at.
