Joanna Zinkiewicz: Memoirs of childhood

“This will be the Republic that young people hide” Jan Zamoyski.

I'm annoyed by the bitey, aggressive statements in the media about school teachers. From these statements, I think the roles have been reversed.

Role reversal

Currently, it is not the teacher who evaluates the student, his advancement in learning, his behavior. The other happens: students and their parents justice and rise teachers. Years ago, I saw on tv how the disheartened youth in 1 of the Polish schools during the course of the class, in the school class, put a dumpster on the head of a defenseless English teacher. Making a "beka", while recording this event on smartphones...

Presumption of the teacher’s guilt

At present, “scientists” have invented respective “disorders” that let a student to be treated specially at school. presently on TV, they show their parents calling the police, under an elaborate pretext, for a teacher. It is adequate that a teacher in subjective judgement of a student will origin him “a hurt”. Never head how and how this expected harm is to reality... Just 1 word, a teacher's conviction erstwhile assessing the essay or the like, which he interprets in any way. The alleged “sexual harassment” among the alleged victims besides became fashionable. Which results in incredible consequences for the teacher. A teacher or teacher must prove that she is not a camel.

Character development

My late mom, Halina Wójcikiewicz, from Lewick's home she frequently recalled the times erstwhile she was educated in school, run in the interwar period by Sister Ursulanka. It was the Private Secondary School and Female advanced School Ursulanka of the Roman Union in Gdynia. The activity of this facility, located at 39/41 Pomorskie Street, began in June 1931. She rapidly functioned until the outbreak of planet War II, educating and educating young people in a patriotic spirit. My parent told me that by shaping her character, in her household home and school, she survived the Nazi occupation. Working hard, keeping your parent sick Karolina Lewicka and a younger brother Zbyszka Lewicki, while her father captain of the Navy Boleslaw Lewicki, he was in German captivity.

Teacher's right.

This subject returned whenever I came from the school I attended years ago as a kid (it was Primary School No. 14 in Gdynia, at ul. Władysława IV No. 50), I tried to complain about a teacher or teacher. My parent told me that I had to comply with my requirements. Teachers in Mom's opinion a priori They were always right. That's how she pacified my rebellion. As I later learned years later, my parents discreetly examined the problems I had reported, checking their legitimacy.

Preparation

At the Ursulanek Sisters School in Gdynia, discipline prevailed. Teachers were very demanding. Acquired cognition and skills allowed my mother, after graduating in 1939, to accept her to medical school. In September 1939, the attack on Poland by Nazi Germany was destroyed by ambitious plans to become a doctor. After forced displacement from Gdynia and leaving for her household in Warsaw, parent began working very hard as a individual in a mill producing metallic products, keeping her mediocre parent Karolina Lewicka and younger brother Zbyszka from a modest salary. After gathering the first bachelor in his life, and then my father, Antoni Wójcikiewicz operating in the underground (in the Home Army), she changed work in occupied Warsaw. She started working on the Deutsche Post Osten (German Post East). This institution was created by the Regulation Hans Frank and occupied the full property of the erstwhile Polish company Polish Post, Telegraf and Telefon. My mother's excellent cognition of the languages of French, German and Latin has decided to accept this job. Languages she learned through her education at the Ursulanek Sisters School in Gdynia. It was besides decided by the needs of the National Army to have individual brave there, who could supply the National Army intelligence with applicable information obtained in this position.

The function of Religion

As a child, I went to a religion that I treated with my eyes shut before going to Holy Communion erstwhile my parent noticed that my attitude toward Catholicism was superficial and de facto ludicrous, she gave me quite a few time to prepare me for her. Her cognition was impressive, her patience to explain and instill in me the appropriate knowing of the religion in which I was baptized. Years later, as a mature woman, I asked her where she had specified awesome theological knowledge. She replied that she had learned from school. She besides pointed out that the prof. who taught religion there was passionate about theology. She then told me that the charism of faith, which she had, allowed her to last the most hard moments of her life.

I compose about it due to the fact that I see that people have lost themselves in pursuit of money, which is the only value. I compose due to the fact that neglect in youth education has fatal, noticeable, measurable effects. 40% of Poles barely realize the simplest messages. It makes me laughter erstwhile adults They can't execute simple calculations without the aid of a calculator.

The cosmopolitanism of Poles, consisting of indifference to fate, scares me Fatherland in a situation where Poland virtually ceases to be as a national state before our eyes.
