Bismillah..

I just feel like writing about one of the most important journey in my life so I open my blog again after such a long time.

I would like to start this post with the feeling of grateful to Allah,,, for real. Alhamdulillah for giving me the chance to create this beautiful journey which recorded one of the most amazing experience in my life. Pengalaman yang paling bermakna.

In 2020, I was heartbroken when I didn't get called for the interview when most of my friends got it and had their posting at the schools. However, all praises be to Almighty Allah s.w.t who have shown me that my journey shall start at different starting point. I was chosen to teach a Tahfiz school in Shah Alam. And the truth to be told, I was so nervous, especially I didn't have any experience handling the school for real deal. I was offered to teach their primary school year 1 up to year 6. Yes. The school is small, so each teacher mostly have to take all classes. No need to be worried, each year only has one class and the pupils pun tak ramai. Up to 12 pupils je and ada kelas yang ada 2 to 3 pupils. huhu. 

My first impression? Rasa macam bukan sekolah. More to tuition. But this school was registered and the pupils also took the big examination. Cumanya, tahun 2020, UPSR dah dimansuhkan, so all the marks (examination or PBD) will have to be recorded by the teacher for the pupils' profiles. In a way, macam nasib baik jugaklah sekolah ni muridnya tak ramai. At least I can totally focuses on the pupils' potentials individually. 

I got to know teachers that from different background and learn a lot of things from them. The headmaster is Kelantanese and she is such an inspirational figure to me. She explained everything to me. And all of us have such a great relationship towards each other. We helped and supported each other a lot. And since most teachers stayed at the hostel, our ukhuwah is even more tight. And I love that a lot. 

Fast forward to 2021. I was assigned to be a teacher for their secondary school (MTAQSA) as their English teacher since their previous teacher couldn't continue the contract. So I have to take 5 classes for secondary school, and 2 classes for primary school. Quite a lot right? It is a lot to be really honest. I was overwhelmed as I don't know if I can carry all classes, plus the examination classes (SPM and SMTQ). I was stressed out in the first month, but soon enough, I got adapted by the school environment.

The teachers had been really kind and helpful to me, and the students there have such an incredible personalities. They are such a lovely and charming bunch of people. They respect all teachers and have a great responsibility individually. They can conduct Tahlil on their own, they are also Imam to each other,, and they can memorize information quickly. For real, bukan calang-calang orang boleh masuk Tahfiz. Even though ramai yang kecundang, at least amalan-amalan yang diajar masih ada dalam diri pelajar2 tersebut. 

Throughout my journey here, I had such a great experience and I got to feel all the feelings that I once had during my school years. Being surrounded with such great people guides me to the right path after a long time wandering at unknown places. I was touched when I was around them as they remind me to my origin. I was graduated from a religious school and this place brings back the memories a lot. 

Now, I'm signing off to create yet another journey to craft a new road of life. Doakan saya semuanya. ^^


To all students, thank you for trusting me to be your teacher walaupun sekejap je. Thank you for completing the works and be patient whenever I was in my blur mode. Kadang2 I got overwhelming thoughts and memang ada effect masa mengajar. But all of you have been a great help to me and I am greatful as I was given the chance to meet all of you. Just know that all of you are so smart and special in your own way. It was such a fun experience being with all of you. I will never forget your names. 

Please don't ever give up in learning. You are getting better and better. Knowledge is everywhere. Tahan lah walaupun rasa penat belajar,, you have a lot of things waiting for you in the future. Your journey has just begun and you will decide your own way. Remember, your journey is not the same as your friends' but at least you are in each other journeys and it is one of the most important thing in life. I would also like to thank all of you for existing in my journey. It is such an honour to start my journey with all of you. 

Keep on doing what you are doing now, and you will see that you will become such a great person in the future. Always remember me in your prayers because InsyaAllah I will do the same thing too.
