Families have all kinds of needs today. If possible, be familiar with resources your community has to offer such as counseling agencies, tutoring services and other ministries not done by the church itself. If you know where to go for help, you are already part of the solution to a problem. The teacher becomes a part of a support system for each child's family. Praying, encouraging and delighting in the successes of the child are all a part of the Christian support we are called to give.
Teachers are busy today with their own families.
It is a matter of commitment and making ministry a priority. Taking your call to teach seriously will lead you to want to go the extra mile. Being a significant person in the life of a child, is a task worth doing well.
