My Facebook communities you can join

Intermediate English

It is a community for students who are currently studying in their intermediate or will be taking up the local exam. 
 
Real world applications of science 

It is an effort to bridge the gap of understanding of science and it's real world applications. 

PIL - Passion in Life

Finding a career path isn't an easy task. Especially in our society students do what they are told to do. Obedience is okay, but passion is when you actually come to know what you want to do. This community tries to do something constructive in this regard. That something could be answering your questions regarding fields of study, scholarship, and yes, even philosophical questions.

L2V - Love to Volunteer

Students who volunteer, and people who love to volunteer possess a heart of change. That's the approach of the community. We want people who would love to spend their energies, time, and talent on a very small scale.

List of volunteering students and the tasks they acheived

Aetsam Azeem

1) Typed questions of Short Stories 1-15.

Note: This post will be continuously updated.

I wish when students become responsible for what they sign up for and take up volunteering as a task they are truly committed to complete.

Finland's education system

They learn 6 or so languages, and what else? See the video. I liked it.

A post after almost 7 months.

I happened to apply in F---. It was an interesting experience. It so happened that they pulled the plug just at the last minute. It was pretty devastating. I'm still teaching high school students in C------- which is interesting experience. The salary is not good at all. Quite demoralizing if you ask me, especially after having an MPhil degree. But I'm glad that I'm able to help students in many ways: career counselling, a little bit of perspective about life, and teaching a new word every now and then.

There are many brilliant students like Ali, Abdullah, Jawad, Shahzaib, Hammad, and Moaz, who I would like to see do best in their lives. The high school life period of my life was in short 'hell'. I just hope my students can come out of that time saying that it was a little less than hell. It was hell because there was so much to do and you knew so little about how to do things, and how to function about in life.

The life of a teacher is extremely hectic. The more I see my fellow colleagues working, I realize that every day is a torture of workload. There is always some new duty that was not given to us the previous year keeps adding up as if it should our duty as well. It is interesting to see how things work out.

Being a teacher it is always rewarding to see when a student makes an effort. I'm going to rest now or sleep now. And instead of Facebook I'd rather prefer this blog.
