After so many months of self-declared missing in action, I’m finally backed to start blogging. I know this post is rather late.
Tribute to the late Mr Ho Chee Koon.
When I was reading this week Sunday times, I was rather shocked to see my secondary one science teacher Mr Ho Chee Koon photo. He had passed away on the 28th April. I remembered clearly that my class was a very noisy class and I don’t know is his fortune to teach us or is my fortune to have patient and caring teacher to teach me. Every science lesson, he will talk in front of the OHP monitor, flashing his notes and explaining all the science theory to us. I remember clearly that, when he touched the physics topic he will explain deep to the topic and when it was chemistry chapter he will just briefly explain the chapters. At that time I was wondering why only physics chapters he will explain so detail but being young at that time I thought I was just being sensitive. When I was in Secondary three did I realise that he is a physics teacher.
At that moment, I fully understand why when I was in secondary one, whenever he teaches physics chapters, he will explain in detail, regardless whether we understand or not. Initially I dislike physics a lot due to personal reasons when I was in secondary three. My closer friends will know the reasons and if you are interested to know the reasons, ask me personally. Thanks!
Mr Ho is a very friendly teacher and I used to tease him whenever I see him in school. He will not get angry but instead he will smile back to you and talks to you. He seldom scold his students no matter how noisy the class is, my class (1T1 2000) is one example. Even thought he only taught me for less than 6 months but at that time my science grades improved tremendous. My fundamental of science knowledge is good all thanks to Mr Ho for guiding me.
When I was secondary three, I told him I dislike physics and score badly for it, he willing spared time to teach me even though he did not teach physics at my batch (both express and normal academic classes).
I shall end here as if I continue to write, I’m afraid I can’t control my tearing from dropping. Mr Ho, you will be remembered by me!
