Coaches are the best teachers


          Any source of learning is a teacher. It doesn't matter if it is a book, or a person. In my opinion, I think the best teacher not only helps you in education, but also helps you in overall development. From what I think, coaches are the best teachers.


           He tells us how to play in a team using different skills. Everyone in a team has different thinking and strategy. They have different skill sets. A coach helps us identify those skill sets of ours, teaches us how to sharpen them and become better. He tells us how to play in a team using different strategy and skill sets from people in the team. For example, a long jump coach trains the athletes how to get the maximum distance in the long jump.


           A coach also helps us develop respect and coordination. Without respect and coordination, a team will never win. In today’s competitive world, getting respect and satisfaction from our opponent is difficult. A coach will teach us how, for example smiling to our opponent and giving them a hand when they fall. A coach teaches us to play in a team, as a team, and to have teamwork.


           A quote which I learnt from values2 class saying “Practice makes perfect” is very true. Discipline is the most important factor to success in our life. Continuity and persistence are also important factor to improve and sharpen our skills. With the help of a coach, these things can be done easier, more efficient, and faster. A coach not only teaches us how to win a game, but also teaches us how to win in the game of life. We can have a higher chance of winning the game of life, succeeding in our life with a coach by our side.

           Any source of knowledge can be considered as teacher. Whoever or whatever inspires you and gives you the correct direction toward your dream is the best teacher. A teacher, a book, a friend, a parent can be your teacher. In my case, I think a coach is the best teacher among all the teachers in my life. He helped sharpen my skills. He helped me develop skills which are essential and are needed in real life. Disciplines, coordination, respect, teamwork and working under pressure are such essential skills. A coach is the one and the only one to give us all we need to win the game of life.

Spectator Sport: Bitec Field Trip

This place was so hot. After we arrived at Bitec, we sat in a huge tent where different schools gather and get their tickets. There was so many schools just by looking at different uniforms. I'm sure some of them might have even came all the way from other province. We sat there for about 10 minutes looking left and right, talk to friends. It was not very bright and I could say it's quite dark in there.

After we finally got the ticket, or sticker to put on your shirt, we walk out of the tent toward the exhibition. It was so crowded just by walking on the road and there's too much people and noises that I could barely find my friend. When we arrived at the exhibition, the place was huge. It was grandiose and they got ac in it. The building looks great but not the content inside.

Inside, there was multifarious booth and experiments but I just walk pass them. The people are just too much. You could hardly walk into the experiment to observe or learn something. You couldn’t even listen to what they said. I am disinterested anyway so I didn't cared much. I quickly finished my physics work and sit in the food court for the rest of the day. The food court was quiet at first. Of course it would be! It’s only about 10am! After some times, I started to hear some noises and saw some people. The noises kept getting louder and louder that I couldn’t talk to my friends who sit beside me. You can find plenty of restaurant with exorbitance prices but there was just this one ramen shop which was much cheaper than others so I chose that ramen shop. That ramen shop could not satiate me with the taste but I have no choice, the others are just too expensive.

After we finished eating, the food court became a concert and the smell was nothing I could describe with the few words I know. It was terrible. Just imagine trashes, leftover, different kinds of thai food and fast food and the worst thing, sweat mixed together. How bad that smell would be. But in the end, I endured it and return safely from that place.
