Teacher Serving in Remotest Part of East Sepik Province My name is Fox Kipu & I am from Ialibu-Pangia District in Southern Highlands Province. As a Primary School Teacher, I want to share my experiences & challenges that I have encountered & continue to encounter in every single day while serving in one of the Primary School for six years & the school is located in one of the remotest part of East Spik Province. In 2013, after graduating from Balob Teachers College in Morobe Province, I first came & taught at Kero Primary School in Imbonggu District, Southern Highlands Province for 3 years. In the beginning of 2017, I got a call from one of my senior brother who had been teaching in East Sepik Province for some years.

From a failure to Australia to Security Guard to Engineer: My Name is Ron and this is My Story3/5/2022 I am Ron Makip from the SHP. I have a story to tell, a struggled of my education life . But it is very long story. I applied in Unitech, Mining Engineering and wasn't accepted got D in Physics. Just like any other kids I got shattered and devastated. My own family rejected me even those around see me as a failure and wasn't good enough. As a faithful Christian, youth leader and member of Kundiawa Grace Baptist Church, I asked God why me? I question God and its coexistence. I am your child and why failed me.But little thought that came ,son I know the future I have for you ,i know why failed you . That thought also strengthened me on a Sunday sermon about Jeremiah in the old testament. I know the plan I have for you before you were conceived. Rev. Umba Mawi (Pastor). I made up my mind and decided to teach at Kundiawa Christian Academy and at the same time I upgraded my two other subjects. By Petrus GAND Being taught by professors and doctors at universities is not a coincidence but it is usually the typical way of the education-curriculum system where students are trained to meet the standard criterion in order to obtain a bachelor, a masters or a PhD degree. And it has remained for centuries in the oldest civilisations of the world. The state is the leading facilitator of human-integral development so it must ensure PNG has the most standardized education system, which will positively impact our nation’s growth. Prior to contemporary societies, the responsible academic educators were eligible by merit. They have undergone the system and passed the standards already. Therefore, they have the capability to analyse any situation in many dimensions. Judith LAPILA PAULS took her Oath on the 06th of January 1989 to serve the RPNGC in protecting life and property for the citizens of PNG. After serving the Constabulary for nearly ten years, she joined Prosecution Division in 1998. Constable Pauls established herself as a successful Prosecutor within NCD and was recognised for her contributions with her promotion to senior prosecutor, and from First Constable to Senior Constable. She also undertook a diploma course at UPNG in 2007, and with further studies attained a Bachelor of Law degree in 2016. By Dean Arek We as educated papua new Guineans need to return to contribute to rural PNG. . I'm not one to talk as I've only just started returning to our home province but I do recognize the need for us even with just a grade 12 education to return home and educate our people. . Whatever you know is more than most of our people will ever learn in their whole lifetime. By Jerry Birop
If you are graduates and if you are looking for jobs, never dream of having a high paid jobs. If you do, You are totally in a wrong position. You need to change your mindset. You should know where you have started first. Remember, you where once an elementary student with no money but maybe a floor balls or a roasted kaukau as your breakfast or lunch. Then you where once a primary school student went to school with roasted floor or maybe a K2.00 for your lunch. At your high school or at your university , some of you may have your own account where you parents normally deposit K20, 50 or K100 fortnightly while some of your go to school without receiving such treatment from your parents because of your poor parents can't meet you such demands. Written by Glen Burua After failing Civil Engineering in the University of Technology in 2012, my dreams were shattered. I stayed at home the whole year 2013. Sometimes we find ourselves in situations we didn’t expect to happen. Depression kicks in and we feel hopeless. The following year, I went back to Unitech to repeat Engineering Mathematics, the unit I failed before. Hoping for the best, I went back fully prepared. At the end of 2014, I had no choice but to accept the fact that I had failed again for the second time. I went home broken. I was so lonely and ashamed of myself. The following year, 2015, I couldn’t even walk around freely. Nights turned into tears as I felt so empty. This book titled "Understanding Success : A Teacher's Perspective" is written by KENNY PAWA AMBIASI. He is a determined and aspiring PNG author and a teacher who is currently teaching at Port Moresby National High School. . This book will help teachers motivation in their work. Please grab a copy from the writer. Overview There is a lot of misunderstanding about the underlying truth of the teaching profession in Papua New Guinea. Many people think that teaching is an easy and low profile profession for people with low grades and failures to pursue. They reckon that the profession offers none or little prospects of advancement and opportunity for success and fulfillment of life’s desires that are found in other professions. By Robert Iki Leso To serve others, we must love people. To work with others, we must humble ourselves. This is a reality in leadership. We seem to have problems in our country because we do not love the people we serve and do not humble ourselves to earn respect from those whom we work with. If we do not serve with love, we will have a lot of hatred and bitterness in society. We will value money and materials more than lives. We will value sex more than family relationships. We will value politics more than leadership. We will value revenge more than forgiveness. If we do not humble ourselves, we will develop a culture to be envious of one another and try to shoot each other down, and end up going nowhere. We will promote a competitive spirit. We will continue to live in a fool’s paradise of ivory towers. We will continue to build castles in the air. We will think about ourselves more than others. We will always gain through other people’s downfall. We will always expect others to serve us than to serve them. Education Talk By Petrus GAND Corruption has adversely hindered UPNG’s dignity, credibility and integrity over the years. Despite being a standardized institution where students secure space through merit when competing with 25 to 30 thousand grade 12 students nationwide, corruption had given the opportunity to get enrolled on a platter stall. Though PNG’s educational system is believed to have a bottle-neck system, it is a deliberate system contrived in a manner that naturally strains the brains of this nation and distributes people on certain appropriate areas according to their natural intelligence. This system has been designed to place competition, boost students to strive harder and higher and also to be responsible citizens of this thriving yet developing nation. |
