Hello family
I am frank frimpong from Ghana,Accra!I am a teacher and at the same time a farmer.I love to be around with children and help them to achieve their aims and also guide them to come out from their shells and be a star among their colleagues.IMG_20180403_102320.jpg

I rhyme a lot and it has helped me to teach my pupils for them to understand whatever l teach them.for example,I took my time when l was teaching them "things that give us light" and after that I rhyme with them and It goes like
I see the moon,
And the moon sees me,
God bless the moon,
And God bless me.And after the rhyme they were happy and I sat down look at them and smile because l have achieved my aim.
Family,I was very glad when a friend introduce me to this wonderful community because I always wondering that how could the whole of Ghana hear my voice not even thought of the whole world at large in a smart and lucrative way.But after the introduction and explanations of this community l realized that the word can even hear my voice.l must say a friend in need is a friend indeed.Thank u friend!
I would like to write about AFRICA AND EDUCATION,THE HISTORY AND CULTURES OF AFRICAN AND THE LIFE OF OUR POLITICAL LEADERS.watch out for ordeal and beautiful post of mine.
I would like to tell a little story about my other side as a farmer.l grew up in a village called Derma one of our pronounce towns in Ghana which produces tomatoes in large quantities. Fortunately my father was one of these farmers so l use to go with him when there is holiday and vacation periods, through this farm activities I wanted to quit my secondary education and enter in to farming but my father wouldn't understand me because he want me to become a teacher and teach the people of our village.I understood but with a condition that,l will go to school but at the same time farm with him when there is a chance.l finished my secondary education and continued my post secondary education where l got my certificate as a teacher.Now farming has become part of my life and am proud of it.l produce tomatoes,pepper, okro and maize.
But upon been a teacher and a farmer things are not eazy for me.l have to be in school by exactly 6:30am and to assist the children to tidy up the compound since the school don't have cleaners and my pupils are also under age and can't use cutlass to weed our environment and since we don't have a mower l have to weed to prevent snakes from entering our class.during break time some of these pupils come to me for food but the sad aspect is that,nothing has been given to me from their parents but l always consider it as a blessing because I heard that teachers will be blessed from above upon our little money we get
from it.
More serious note one day l ask my pupils who want to be a teacher in future.hmmm l nearly walk out from class because know one don't want to become a teacher.l ask them why all of you don't want to become a teacher and all responded no no no at the same time as if l have blow a whistle, our parent said teaching is not a good job to do in future and also there is know better pay when we become teachers.that is why in our country Ghana we say teaching is a call.but guys l can say for sure teachers grow older than all other lucrative jobs we found in Ghana.
One core dificulties l am facing which l have fought for it is the teaching and learning materials.we luck them and our leaders has given blind eyes to that but we are fighting to bring the best out from these children.
After all day work at school l tried to come home early as possible and prepared for the next day and also planned what is next for my farm.
Good people of steemit am ready for you as l write more of these and many more.
