He described Aunty Ijeoma as a kind teacher who taught him well and helped shape him into who he is today. In a viral Facebook post, Anucha shared his joy and gratitude for his former teacher.
“Early this week, I reconnected with Aunty Ijeoma, who was my Nursery 3 teacher at St. Joseph’s Development Nursery/Primary School Umuchichi Aba. I was unaware that she was a student in my department, until she came to attend my course,” wrote Anucha.
He went on to express his gratitude for the impact Aunty Ijeoma had on his life, saying “Aunty, thank you for teaching me well then. I am what I am today because of you. Life is indeed a cumulative effect.”
This heartwarming reunion highlights the importance of teachers and the impact they have on their students’ lives. It also serves as a reminder that life is full of surprises and we never know when our paths may cross with those from our past.
