Peet Ngairo
When did your journey as a teacher start?
The wonderful journey as a teacher started on 14 February 1999 at my former high school and current duty station Okahandja Secondary School.
Was teaching always something you wanted to do?
Not really, in fact, I wanted to study accounting, but after getting a bursary from the government, I had no choice but to go for teaching, specialising in commerce.
What are the most challenging things as a teacher?
Indiscipline of learners, the low-level of commitment and the surge in the use of drugs remain limiting factors in the education sector.
What would you have done if you had not become a teacher?
Over the past few years, I developed a passion for law. So, I guess I could or would make a good lawyer.
What keeps you inspired and motivated to keep on teaching?
Working with independent and committed learners despite their intellectual capacity just gives me that extra push.
What do you enjoy doing in your free time?
During my free time, I run errands looking for business opportunities, attend to farming activities and spend time with family and friends.
What is the greatest thing you have ever achieved?
I would say, a multi-task loaded balanced lifestyle and academically my results over the years have been very sound, my latest being my NSSCAS level learners achieving a 100% pass rate with As in entrepreneurship in the recently published results for the 2021 external examination.
Do you have any motivation for prospective teachers?
Here we put egos aside and work tirelessly for the sake of the Namibian child.
