Learning from our Students

[janesa]

I think you had to have an open mind when you teach your students. But sometimes some teachers are so proud of themselve. I have a story of this instructor that always try to make us (students) look bad. I got in trouble one time with him. By this time there was 3 instructors in our dojo so he ask the others two to kick me out of the dojo. My instructors( the other two) tell him no. He got angry and left, making his own dojo. In a recent tournament I saw him. He was judging in the tournament. I was competing in individual kata and he was one of the judges. When I finish my kata (Bassa-dai) he was very surprise and told that I improve a lot. I told him thank you, that was my revenge and I left. It is true sometimes students can teach to the teachers.

I'm so much younger than a lot of my students, so I try ask them questions about their jobs and life. I learn things like that from that about them.
