I love my students as a teacher and nothing else

I love my students as a teacher and nothing else.

From my experience in life which is for learning from. It is a bursting bubble to write on these but what do children nowadays call love is triggering in nature.

Years back now, I have experienced a double approach by female students of schools that I had taught showing a significant infatuation that they called to love. Even though I was a very strict and no-nonsense teacher they felt sorry for themselves because a cultured man from the southwest area of Nigeria Africa will always put the right morals upfront.

I taught in a semi-modernized area of my country called the mainland and as a man who has witnessed different significant to show how attractive I am from secondary school days, tertiary school and frequent compliments from strangers, I know, I to excel in my career as a teacher, I must be strict with my dealings. This is not a pride,
Concurrent things must be put to notice as we grow and to be best made of.

The first infatuation of love was significant after two weeks of resumption to the first school I taught. There comes a child of sixteen years then. She was very attentive, attempted questions in class and her assignments were always done.

All I thought was that she was a diligent student. She started coming closer bringing several questions she had issues with then one day, she asked for a favor to be my mentee which I was just willing to help.

One day she just offered me lunch and said it was because I was hard working and she did understand my subject whenever I taught them also as a mentee and wanted to appreciate me and that is all. I know free food can be dangerous but reasoned with her and I decided to eat lunch that day and that was the problem.

Lunch was a rare thing but later became frequent. I told her to stop it because it was now shocking somehow. She claims her parents know about the free meal as she has discussed it with her parents and that it is just a daily appreciation.
Imagine, as if I complained I was hungry for food.

As she alters these words from her mouth, I know there is a problem and there is something she isn't telling me. I confirmed with her friends what the free food was and was surprised.
There is something wrong with her and it needs to be corrected before it gets out of hand.

Putting on the correctional set up I made my decision clearly to all my students and that was when I saw the change. In the week that followed some of the students and my mentee behaved scrupulously and was dealt with by me. They corrected themselves which was great and I loved them all as a teacher. Male students love me better as they have confirmed a teacher is not a competitor of love in the school.

Having a chat with them one day I warned them to never partake in a teacher/student intimate relationship even though it revolves around the environment.

I taught in the school for years, and when I left I created a legacy that made some people over there love me the most.
But not everyone will like you though.

I have found another significant here in the town where I now reside. A female student already wanted to be a mentee and at 17, I wondered why she was flirty. Oops, I can't tell you where I hear the confession she made but it gets to me. Putting on my corrective measures immediately as usual.

I maneuvered moral values to a week's speech topic and I emphasized that I am not in support of teacher/student intimate relationships and warned those who partake that they should withdraw.
It is a new week and the unscrupulous are now showing up.

Sorry if corporal punishment is not allowed in your continent, Oops I am sorry we still do here. Yes, I dealt with my love bugs lately and they have all understood my tone.
Male students know I always have them in mind to impact something on, so we are always cool. We all share one love and motive now.

My point is I love my students as a teacher and nothing else.
