– It’s not easy to remain steadfast in teaching if one only receives a
little salary for her work. In a such condition, one’s focus is divided between
dedicating to teaching and working to make ends meet.
For Hana Musobihah
(65), however, this has never been a problem. For forty-five years, the woman
who lives in Hegarmanah Village, Cidolog District, Ciamis Regency, has dedicated
herself to teaching despite receiving only IDR 150,000 a month and having to
walk three kilometers every day to work.
She never tries to
find other jobs to make ends meet. After teaching at the school, she teaches at
a madrasa until late afternoon. After maghrib, she continues teaching Quran to
local children.
“I am determined
to dedicate my life to education and teaching. Though what I receive isn’t
much, it’s enough, Alhamdulillah. The parents and guardians often
give me assistance,” said Hana to Aksi Cepat Tanggap (ACT) Ciamis, Wednesday
(12/1/2021).
Hana then said
that many of the students she used to teach have become government officials,
entrepreneurs, and private employees. To her, her greatest joy is seeing her
students succeed in life.
“To teachers like
me, true happiness is when seeing our students succeed. It means that what we
have taught is beneficial to them,” said Hana. []
