The tales of 2 alphabet

Today I set for one of my toughest exams. This course is covered by 2 lecturers. H and T. H is an engineer. T, too, is an engineer.


The course started with H. He went on and on and eventually lost all of us (most, anyway) in the class. I felt like I didn't learn anything in this course from H. After a few weeks, it was T's turn. He took over the class and recapped the course in 2 hours. Just like that, all of us understood.I felt like I have learned everything in this course from T.

Tales of 2 lecturers. No intention to disrespect but by just observing them, could tell that one is focused, passionate, pressed for excellence, emphasized on learning, while the other is slack, indifferent, casual, or just getting by every lecture.

This exam was hard, because (1) of the nature of the subject (2) H was involved and (2) T was involved. H's material was tough as he was not a good lecturer, while T's material was tougher because his part was tricky.

Not likely I will get good grades for this paper, but this paper taught me a lot, too much to write down here anyway. Grades are just one of the way to measure what we got out of a course, no? There's certain more then grades that employers are looking for when they hire, no? Having a degree doesn't promise anything, yes?

Thanks both to H and T for teaching in this course. Learned heaps.

Soon I'll be an engineer. Just like H and T. So little time, so much to learn.
