As Lagos state schools resumed for the second term teachers across the state have returned to work with renewed energy and positive attitudes.

One such teacher is Adeola Johnson, who has been teaching for over 15 years. Johnson, who teaches at a secondary school in Ikeja, said she was inspired by the power of positive attitude and its impact on the workplace.

“I realised that I had been focusing too much on the negative aspects of my job, and not appreciating the positive impact I was having on my students’ lives,” she said. “But with a changed attitude, I feel more energized and fulfilled in my job, and my students respond positively too.”

Johnson’s experience is not unique. Across Lagos state, teachers have been sharing similar stories of how a positive attitude can make a huge difference in the workplace, especially in the field of education.

One teacher, Kunle Brown, who joined a secondary school in Victoria Island this year, has been hailed by his colleagues for his enthusiastic and positive attitude. “He’s always greeting everyone with a smile and a cheerful ‘good morning!’,” said Tolu Adeyemi, who teaches at the same school. “It’s contagious, and it’s making a big difference in the school community.”

Education experts have also emphasised the importance of positive attitudes in the workplace. “A positive attitude can create a more productive and supportive work environment, which ultimately benefits the students,” said Dr. Toyin Adebayo, a lecturer at the Lagos State University.
