What is it like for an ethnic minority to teach in a school with predominantly male students from the largest ethnic group in the country? Would the students with privileges have a sense of entitlement? How does it affect their motivation to learn and education outcomes? The author explores the theme of Narcissism in her community. Readers see the author serving passionately, trying to inspire students, and struggling with her weaknesses amidst work duties, family responsibilities, church commitments, and self-improvement. With her focus on serving her students in school and college, would retirement also be a time to serve others? Would she be attracting selfish persons who desire service from others? Would she fall for their lies, gaslighting, and manipulation? In the book 'Are We Born to Serve? An Ethnic Minority Serves with Fervor,' the award-winning author discusses her life as a daughter, niece, educator, researcher, and Christian. She discusses her career experiences spanning 38 years of teaching, lecturing, research, and publishing. The book offers readers a close-up glimpse into the life and work of a dedicated and innovative educator and researcher. The author hopes that her experiences, illustrations, and context will allow readers, including minorities, educators, researchers, and Christians, to find her experiences overcoming issues as an ethnic minority valuable and pertinent to their lives. Her story continues beyond retirement, offering rich insights into post-career purpose, her contributions to the community, and the unexpected fruitfulness her efforts yielded. Get the book!
