We must not forget that each child has their own personality and character. I like to think of children as flower seedlings; there is an unlimited variety; each having their own fragrance, color, and distinguishing characteristics. They bloom at various times, some prefer the shade while others yearn for the sun. We must step back and observe each child without comparing them to others; it is necessary to support and assist each child in order for him/her to excel at his/her own pace and fashion. This is a critical yet a very sensitive process: It is important to value each personality and character while still maintaining a structured and firm sense of discipline in order for each student to build self esteem and confidence. Without this we can not function in this modern and fast moving world.
