My Favorite worse decision

 

Day1

My worst favorite decision was when I decided to work in a school for girls and boys, because I studied both types (boys and girls) and suffered from the different characteristics between them, and the different ways of attracting them, especially in certain age stages such as children aged ten years and over. But this bad decision became my favorite because it opened horizons for me and taught me many characteristics related to girls, and taught me many characteristics related to boys, to give an example: I noticed that girls are calmer, and dealing with them is easier, and I can do better with them, but they are less accommodating than boys, And less active than boys. As for boys, they are better at understanding, and faster in responding. Boys, as I noticed, are smarter, but they are troublemakers and need severe control. This decision led me to finally decide on which school I would like to work in, and I am now a teacher in a primary school for boys.

The dilemmas of this decision was: 

1-  Lack of experience in dealing with both types (boys and girls).

2- I fell into the trap of confirmed evidence, as I did not return to educational advice to help me understand the characteristics of the two types (boys and girls) in their different stages, but rather relied on previous ideas for dealing with students, based on the treatment I used to find from teachers when I was a child.

3- I fell into the trap of estimation and prediction, because I was very distinguished in my university and I got an honors degree in my major. I thought that my strength in the scientific subject would dispense with the social, psychological and educational experience related to students, and I later noticed that the educational culture was very weak for me, as I needed to read and educate Educational and psychological.

Day2

One of the hidden traps that I consider present in this decision is (the estimating and forecasting trap). Although I was upset because I taught male students and had difficulty dealing with them and understanding them, I was very confident because I had read about educational methods in the past, and I did not give up. To research how to deal with males at the age stage I study, their characteristics, and the activities appropriate for their learning. Also, despite my suffering, I fell into ( the status quo trap), because I was afraid to change schools for fear that the principal and administration of other schools would be unfriendly.

Day3

What caused me a dilemma in making the decision was that I had important conflicting options. What made me stick with you in school was the kindness of the principal and administration, and the kindness of my department’s work team, despite facing many pressures that were not found in other schools, especially since we were attending school six days a week. Sometimes the working hours extend until the evening. But what kept me sticking with the school for a while was the kindness of the staff as I mentioned earlier.
