Pupils need your confidence

Children are full-fledged partners and totally equipped for their
own development.
When you express your confidence in their development, with a nice
word: development potential, you give children the chance to grow.
People which develop to the best of their abilities can’t
under-perform
Speaking about development: if there is anyone who has knowledge
about it, it is the teacher. But in this sense many of them use a
limited part of their observations and experiences.
Development in school is judged by the achievement of children.
The question is if development as product, as result, is more
important than development as a process. The way of development.
The more you know about that process, the better you are able to
help. Pupils don’t need teachers to measure their results.
They need the confidence of the teachers that they will be successful.
They need their patience and questions after the problems they met.
