Viera Kováčová

We woke the professor of high school. Usually, he and his husband get up early in the morning, but today, they’re asleep by 6:30 until we ring the bell. She asked us about the academic twenty minutes and came out to meet a nice, perfectly groomed lady.

At first she was surprised by us and the award, but the initial embarrassment replaced the heartfelt conversation.

Mrs. Vierka is retired, but she is still following the fates of her pupils. With some they write, with many still see each other. She taught them chemistry and physics. She says she was strict, then she gets fixed, and she says she’s more consistent. She believed that chemistry and physics were the most important subjects that pupils had to devote to. Later, however, she realized that not every child enjoyed these items, but had a chance to stand out in another industry. She tried to be empathetic and to perceive even if the students were having a difficult time and manifested themselves in preparation for teaching. But if they agreed on something, it always had to be true.

He’s just getting used to retirement. She takes care of her grandson and mom. School, more precise contact with people, but she misses much and looks at what she could be involved in in retirement.
