When at Home, Joint, and the Son Behind "Beloved"

If you want to teach, remember the words of Ki Hajar Dewantara:
1.      If you are in front of them.
2.      If you are with them.
3.      If you are behind them.

I do not understand the intent of the words above, I've plural dealing with students, but the words above are still gray for me. It turns out he interprets the above, the conclusion like this:

1.      If you are in front of them.
That is: What does a teacher when dealing with students directly. Teachers often show no special figure in front of her students. Only show something commonplace. No value plus. Science teachers tend not optimal. There is no sincere intention in teaching, so that seems just a statue for their students. Teachers should give students a strong sense of appreciation, best profiles, providing knowledge to students, not just let go of liability.

2.      If you are with them.
The point: Most students embarrassed to ask the teacher. For whatever reason. May be due to the teacher being mustard when with them. Teachers should be able to distinguish the position of teacher and friend. Take for example: why children in the house more freely ask their parents? The answer is easy, because the parents are able struggling with their children. Relax with the kids. Made himself personally familiar. However, the facts in the world of education this time very far from the fire, the teacher always wanted to be a bad example, just selfish. Just imagine, later calling the students when there are needs. But, when students call him, anyway it was looking for an excuse not to help.

3.      If you are behind them.
That is to say: Well, this is the reason most memorable. What you've given when the students we've seen around the world? What we contribute when students return to school? Had no contact senses? The answer is, this is where the teacher gives an understanding of religion as an attitude control when they see social interactions outside. Teachers already instil aqidah, fiqh, morals, etc. as the patron of students. Teachers also keep control when his sewajibnya they're dressed regular. Still, inspired by millions of motivation.
