Melan Achmad, or fondly called Grandpa Teacher, is an inspirational figure who has dedicated more than five decades of his life to the field of education. In his old age, he does not just sit idle; instead, he utilizes the power of TikTok to spread mathematical knowledge to students and the wider community. With a simple and easily understandable style, Grandpa Teacher has succeeded in transforming complex mathematical concepts into enjoyable lessons. It’s no wonder that he now has thousands of followers and warm support from netizens who are captivated by his enthusiasm. His latest post even garnered more than 10,000 likes, hundreds of positive comments, and thousands of views, proving how significant his influence is in the online world!
In the historic moment of the National Teacher's Day Peak 2024, President Prabowo emotionally presented a plaque, a laptop, and a cash prize of Rp100 million to Mbah Guru Matematika, an inspirational figure who has made significant achievements in the field of education. Equally special, an award was also given to Kuswanto, a dedicated teacher who founded Gubuk Baca for children marginalized from formal education. With tears of emotion, Prabowo expressed his gratitude to the educators who have made extraordinary contributions, reminding him of his father, who was also a teacher. In his passionate speech, President Prabowo affirmed his commitment to continue fighting for the welfare of teachers and improving the quality of education throughout Indonesia.
Grandpa Math Teacher has proven that social media can be a golden bridge for positive education. Since launching his TikTok account in 2022, he has successfully changed the perception of thousands of students towards mathematics, which is often seen as a frightening specter. With always bustling live streaming sessions, hundreds of active viewers engage, ask questions, and discuss directly, creating a dynamic learning atmosphere. Expressions of gratitude such as "Thank you, Grandpa Teacher, I now understand math" have become a common sight in each of his posts. Grandpa Teacher's success shows that innovation and technology can be powerful tools to reach students across the country, even in remote areas.
In addition to Grandpa Teacher, another inspirational figure deserving of attention is Kuswanto, a dedicated teacher from Sigi, Central Sulawesi. With an unquenchable spirit, Kuswanto founded the Reading Hut, an extraordinary initiative that provides educational access for children who are forced to help their parents in the fields. The Reading Hut is not just a place to learn, but also a source of knowledge with a sufficient collection of textbooks, offering new hope for children in remote areas. Kuswanto's dedication has inspired many to work together to expand educational reach in hard-to-reach regions. He hopes this award can be a trigger for more people to care and contribute to the education of children in remote areas.
President Prabowo emphasized his commitment to making education a top priority for the government, highlighting the appreciation for teachers as a small yet significant step in the larger effort to improve the quality of education in the country. In his speech, he expressed that through close collaboration with the Ministry of Primary and Secondary Education, the government will focus on curriculum development and the welfare of teachers. One tangible step taken is providing access to technology and training for educators across Indonesia. With the dedication shown by inspiring figures like Mbah Guru Matematika and Kuswanto, Prabowo is optimistic that Indonesian education will continue to move forward, enlightening the nation's life and shaping a brilliant generation.
In the midst of the rapid digital flow, Mbah Guru Matematika, who is none other than Melan Achmad, an 80-year-old teacher, radiates his passion for teaching mathematics through the TikTok platform. In a unique and cheerful way, Mbah Guru has successfully bridged the gap between the younger generation and this often difficult subject, proving that age is not a barrier to sharing knowledge in a fresh and entertaining manner!
President Prabowo respectfully presented a plaque, a sophisticated laptop, and a cash prize of Rp100 million to Mbah Guru Matematika, as a form of appreciation for his extraordinary dedication to the world of education.
Gubuk Baca, an inspiring initiative by Kuswanto, serves as a window of knowledge for children in the remote areas of Sigi, opening up opportunities for them to explore a world of learning that may have been hindered by distance and limitations.
With an unmatched teaching spirit, he managed to capture the attention of many through live math learning sessions on TikTok, causing his name to soar viral and receive various praises from netizens.
The government demonstrates a strong commitment to improving the quality of education in the country by utilizing advanced technology, providing competent training for teachers, and enhancing the welfare of educators. These efforts aim to create a smarter future generation ready to face global challenges.
