My Student’s Comments from Previous Semester

Assalamualaikum w.r.m w.b.t and greetings to everyone,

I am sure as a teacher or lecturer, we always want to give our best to our students. I believe once we put our ‘heart’ and ‘soul’ in teaching, good things will come back to us.

Last semester was quite smooth for me. I am grateful to have students who are passionate in learning, full of love and respect towards me.

Thank you for being you. Thank you for being a good student. Thank you for teaching me to be a good teacher.

I hope I can see you guys again next semester. Till then, I attached few comments that I found in my e-ppp system.
