One of the important task that many are not aware of a lecturer is his role as an Academic Advisor (Penasihat Akademik) to a group of student he is assigned for. I am not excluded. I am assigned 24 students in 2018 and now all of the students are going to graduate at the end of 2nd quarter 2022. In Syaa Allah.
However, there are always 1 or 2 students that require special care and attention. I have 2 students this semester that I have to really closely monitor. They are highly intelligent students but somehow something went wrong and we have to help, guide and monitor them accordingly so that they can graduate the chemical engineering course.
Following up to that, I squeezed my time from my hectic schedule to contact the parent of one of the student that requires help. We had a conversation and I smell and see some positive sign. I hope the student will enhance his performance soon and I really want to see him excel and graduate. I want to see the student have a bright and awesome future ahead.
