MY JOB
I WORK AS A PRIMARY SCHOOLTEACHER OR EDUCATIONALIST. 
I LOVE CHILDREN AND SINCE I'M NOT GOING TO HAVE ANY OF MY OWN, -IS THIS ALSO A GOOD WAY TO COMPENSATE FOR THAT.

RIGHT NOW I'M WORKING 5 MINUTES FROM WHERE I LIVE IN AN INTEGRATED INSTITUTION CALLED :ROSENHAVEN
AN "AGE INTEGRATED INSTITUTION" MEANS THAT THE CHILDREN ARE NOT DIVIDED IN GROUPS CONTAINING CHILDREN AT THE SAME AGE: WE HAVE CHILDREN FROM 0 UPTO 7 YEARS OLD.

SELF-DETERMINATION

The children learn to choose, take responsibility for their own actions, learn to verbalize their wishes and needs, and socialize with the world around them.

That means that my job takes as its basis , the needs and wishes of the individual child, -within the limits the teacher has  or makes.

Instead of being the teacher with all the timetables, with everything in its little boxes prearranging everything, we "read", listen to, lead and support the child.
We are the "servicing" and interpreting teachers whose job is to support and help the child in its development of its own personality.
This is a way of teaching which is very demanding, and if the teachers are not clever enough can easily end up in "laisse faire" and Chaos!

Also we think it is of very big importance that the children, even at a very young age, learn to respect, enjoy and understand the nature and that we are all a part of this world. This by bringing the nature to the children and bringing the children into the nature, -there is nothing as good as " LEARNING BY DOING " !

Unfortunately it is in Denmark, as in the rest of the world, governments have to save money
                                  and who can't object :

Our future ,-the children !
