    Should a teacher be strict or friendly with students?

    No, God forbid! Strict teachers are hated, and students hate their classes the most. Also they fail their exams more often, because of how they cant concentrate. I hated personally strict teachers.

    Should students choose what they like to read in class?

    Yeah, they should. But sadly, the modern education system wouldn't let us being too autonomous. I hope in the future the entire system gets changed.

    All Ages Did religious education change your outlook on life?

    In part, as I'm not a very religious person, but I think there is always something to learn from everything, including religion. There is a lot of faiths out there which have a lot of wisdom.

    Violence by students

    It's a natural thing, sadly. Though some countries are more or less disposed to it. Growing up in the middle eastern country I can say it happens quite a lot because the environment is somewhat aggresive. People mature really fast and hormons are bumping up.

    First Day of Classes or Training

    That's quite interesting. We don't have that here, sadly, for some reason. I guess our country's education system is failing too much and remains behind, therefore teachers always use the same teaching methods for the last 50 years or so, weird huh?

    English How many languages do you speak?

    I speak 3 languages, English, Ukrainian and Russian. I did try to learn Spanish once, but it didn't go too well, sadly. I hope that in the future I might learn another language. Because more languages = more power! I recommend everyone to be able to learn multiple languages, it's a good move.

    First Day of Classes or Training

    First lesson must always be something easy, more related with introduction rather than learning. You want the students to get a really good impression on you, therefore you must help them maintain that impression by doing something fun.

    All Ages What do you think is the reason for our existence?

    There is no reason. We can create one. The problem with modern society is that it has removed all ideologies to avoid being "fascists", and therefore people are becoming lazy and depressed. They have nothing to live for, sadly.

    Is your country under the Kto12 program?

    Yes, and I dislike it. I prefer when 10 or 11 years was around, because school is useless nowadays. At least in our country the education system is poor, and old (in terms of incapability to adjust to the new era outside).

    Group Assignments: Friend groups or Assigned groups?

    Friends groups, all the way. People need to socialize with those they want, and not forced. I've found assignments done with friends much more fun and productive. I'd feel uncomfortable with strangers around me.

    Game Cards

    I've been using game cards myself, both when I was studying and teaching. Best part about it is the fact that children love cards for some reason. The whole concept of holding it and playing. That's how we have learned English.

    Cooking - Fractions

    It's indeed a good way to teach children, but you gotta understand that some might have a talent and desire for it, and others won't. Cooking isn't suitable for everyone, but everything aside - it's a wonderful strategy.

    Limits on math content

    I think learning geometry and arithmetic is mandatory, but shouldn't be over done. But the rest of math subject aren't necessary, especially if you don't intend on working in that field. Arithmetic will allow you to count and geometry to understand shapes.

    Geometric forms - recognition of daily objects.

    That's a fun way to educate kids, I think it's a splendid idea. The best way to teach children is by making them interested in it themselves, and we as adult must come up with something creative, such as your suggestion.

    All Ages What musical instrument do you want to learn

    Aye, I understand your choice. Guitar is a classical choice to go with. Especially around the campfire with girls, guitar is the thing that can save you from an akward situation, hehe. ;)

    Depression, does it stop creativity?

    Depression makes you feel pessimistic, when a person is in a similar state he basically can't do anything. He's vulnerable. He must climb out of the psychologica ladder to beat depression. It's a terrible stage to be at.

    All Ages Religion subjects - were they easy or hard?

    I had one religious subject at school, and it was very easy. I disliked other subjects more, in particular some modern "gender equality" bollox lessons and lections about condoms. Godless innovations by the education system. Marry once and you won't need condom lessons.

    All Ages What musical instrument do you want to learn

    I would love to learn "doul", it's a rare instrument which resembles a unique drum. Creates a very good energetic beat.

    Recommendations for beginning photographer?

    It's best to hold hands with a person who is professional at photography, myself I had such friend and he used to guide me through the process of learning.
