Onderwysers is die ingenieurs wat vir baie kinders die toekoms help inlei. Tog is dit nie elke dag dat waardering aan hulle betoon word nie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In Oktober word W\u00eareld Onderwysers\u00addag gevier en dit is ook Onderwyserwaarde-ringsmaand. Paarl Post <\/span>het gesels met Andriette Smit van die Ho\u00ebrskool Gimnasium Paarl oor die rol wat sy by haar skool speel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Smit is in Klerksdorp gebore en het in Evander, Mpumalanga, grootgeword. Sy vertel sy is die jongste van drie susters. Smit s\u00ea sy was \u2019n leerder aan die Ho\u00ebrskool Evander waar sy uitgestaan het as \u2019n atleet in gewigstoot en diskusgooi sowel as netbal. Sy het by dieselfde skool haar skoolloopbaan voltooi. Wanneer Smit terugdink aan haar skooljare is daar geen twyfel dat sy nog altyd \u2019n onderwyser wou word nie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cVanaf ho\u00ebrskooldae het ek ekstra wiskundeklasse vir my vriendinne gegee, en dis waar ek die besluit geneem het om \u2019n onderwyseres te word, omdat ek kinders wil help om die beste te wees wat hulle kan wees. Ek is reeds 17 jaar in die onderwys. Ek het \u2019n groot liefde vir syfers en dit is waarom ek besluit het om \u2019n rekeningkunde-onderwyseres te word. Beste besluit ooit!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

N\u00e1 skool het Smit \u2019n jaar in Londen deurgebring. Met haar terugkeer het sy \u2019n onderwysgraad (B Ed senior fase en VOO) aan die Universiteit van Suid-Afrika (Unisa) verwerf. As onderwyser is Smit baie doelgerig en het sy vir haar die doelwit gestel om \u2019n 100%-slaagsyfer te kry in die vak wat sy onderrig, maar om ook altyd daar te wees vir haar leerders deur hulle te ondersteun.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cEk wil kinders ontwikkel tot die beste van hul vermo\u00eb. Om hulle te leer jou beste is goed genoeg. Ek wil daar wees as hulle my nodig het, \u2019n steunpilaar vir die gemeenskap. Ek wil help bou aan die toekoms van die land. No one will be left behind<\/span>.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Behalwe dat sy onderrig, is Smit (37) ook adjunkhoof by Gimnasium. Sy is een van drie adjunkhoofde by di\u00e9 skool en hanteer alle personeelsake, asook die gr.12-eksamens. Goeie uitslae en wanneer leerders die werk verstaan wat sy verduidelik maak Smit se beroep as onderwyser vir haar die moeite werd. Dis ook vir haar baie bevredigend om te sien dat haar leerders net soveel liefde het vir rekeningkunde soos sy. \u2019n Bewys hiervan is die 100%-slaagsyfer in rekeningkunde vir gr. 12-leerders die afgelope sewe jaar. Dis iets waaroor Smit baie trots is.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cOnderwysers vorm die hoeksteen van die toekoms. Sonder onderwysers is daar geen manier dat ons ooit vorentoe sal kan beweeg nie. Ons onderrig nie net kinders nie, ons leer hulle ook van die w\u00eareld daar buite. Ons dra by tot die waardes wat hulle benodig vir die grootmensw\u00eareld. Ons maak van hulle respekvolle lands\u00adburgers. Toekomstige leiers. Onderwysers doen baie meer as net onderrig. Ons verdien elke dag waar\u00addering vir als wat ons insit om ander se kinders te help groei.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Smit is self ook \u2019n ma. Sy het \u2019n 13-jarige dogter, Leandr\u00e8. Met baie jare agter die rug in die onderwys erken Smit dat om \u2019n onderwyser te wees nie die maklikste beroep is nie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sy wil ander onderwysers ook bemoedig om aan te hou met die goeie werk wat hulle doen al raak dinge soms moeilik.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWeet jy maak \u2019n groot verskil aan die toekoms. Kinders kyk op na jou. Onderwysers is baie kinders se rolmodelle, hul veilige hawe. Hou aan inspireer en motiveer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cGee leiding. Laat elke kind in jou klas altyd voel hy\/sy is die belang\u00adrikste. Jou glimlag is dalk die enigste glimlag wat \u2019n kind op \u2019n dag kry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cOndersteun elke kind wat jou pad kruis. Liewe onderwyser, onthou jy maak saak! Jy is \u2019n superster!\u201d .<\/span>Teachers are the engineers who help pave the way for the future for many children. Yet, it is not every day that appreciation is shown to them.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
