  Don’t Compare Yourself to Others In today’s world, it is easy to look at other people and feel like we are not enough. Whether it is on social media, at school, or in everyday life, comparing ourselves to others is something many of us do without even realizing it. However, constantly comparing yourself to others can be harmful and stop you from being happy. It is important to focus on your own journey and remember that everyone’s path is different.

Psalm 127:1 also says, “Unless the Lord builds the house, those who build it labor in vain.” Without His presence in my daily life, even the most productive days feel meaningless. I’ve realized that true peace and direction come only when we invite God into our r...

  My First Contribution as a Future Teacher Hi everyone! 😊 I’m currently studying to become an English teacher at UES. Although I haven’t graduated yet, I truly believe that learning is a journey best shared with others. This is my very first contribution to my community as I begin my teaching path. I’ve created a 4-week ESL lesson plan for young learners, with two classes per week. The goal is to help English learners begin to understand and use basic vocabulary in a fun and engaging way. By the end of the month, students will have learned vocabulary related to: • Greetings • Colors • Animals • Family • Classroom Objects • Nature Each week in this plan focuses on a specific topic, designed to gradually build students’ vocabulary and confidence in using English. The classes are interactive, using songs, games, flashcards, and group activities to make learning enjoyable and memorable. The structure is as follows: Week 1: Greetings and basic introductions Week...
