"Brother, I am very frustrated. I work as a teacher and there are many good students at school, but I feel that my teaching style is sometimes not helping them.

Dear Ahmed,
I understand your problem very well. Your responsibility as a teacher is immense, and the pressure you feel for it is very natural. The love and sincerity you show towards your work makes you a true teacher. However, there are moments in any job when it seems that no matter how much effort we put in, we are not getting any results. I feel how difficult this is for you.
When you are trying to help students, your love and care for them are your greatest strength. But remember, there is never a single right way for any student or teacher. The methods you are using to teach them may not always be the most effective for them. But if you start to get feedback from them, you will see how you can help them better. If you listen to students' opinions, how they feel good in your class or what areas could be more helpful, your teaching method will improve.
Besides, your family is also an important place for you. They may worry that you are wasting extra time on work. But your spontaneity and purpose in life are very valuable to them. So give them time, talk to them too and think calmly. If you spend some time together, your relationship will become stronger and your burden of responsibility towards the family will also be reduced a bit.
Congratulations on the love, care, and dedication you show towards your work. But it is also very important to take some time for your own peace of mind and your family. Remember, when you are happy, your work will be better.
Remember this, there will be many ups and downs on the path of life that you are on. But each challenge will make you stronger. Continue your learning process, but also take care of yourself and your family. Success will come, it just takes time.
Best wishes,
