THE UNIQUE TEACHER I EVER KNOWN

Blog ini awalnya saya dedikasikan hanya untuk primbon Bahasa Inggris kelas X sekitar 2 tahun yang lalu. Tapi, setelah saya pikirkan kembali, tidak ada salahnya untuk meramaikan blog ini dengan menuangkan curahan sebagai bentuk pengabadian my moment with pak @fisikarudy. Sudah lama sekali saya tidak memperhatikan blog ini, sehingga dipenuhi dengan butiran debu, hehe#sedikit hiperbola. :D

Pak Rudy Hilkya adalah salah satu guru Fisika di SMA Negeri 2 Palangkaraya yang sangat berprestasi plus fenomenal and I called him as my motivator teacher. Beliau terkenal dengan kekonyolan dan kekreatifannya dalam mengajar. Awal bertemu bapak Rudy, jujur saja saya merasa sangat takut dan gugup, sampai-sampai tangan ini pun terasa dingin dan layaknya air yang membeku menjadi es, namun seketika saja beliau menghangatkan suasana dan mengolah kelas menjadi semenarik mungkin. Saya juga memberikan julukan “THE UNIQUE TEACHER I EVER KNOWN”, karena beliau sangat unik. Beliau dapat membuat kita tegang, gugup, sport jantung, ngakak, termotivasi, skill kita terasah, keringat dingin dan masih banyak lagi, semuanya berlangsung tanpa kita duga.

Sebagai manusia, tentu saja rasa MALAS terkadang hinggap di benak kita, ya contohnya saja saya sendiri. Tugas demi tugas diluncurkan pak Rudy dalam aneka ragam, seperti membuat video rangkaian seri dan paralel, dapat disaksikan di link ini:

Kemudian membuat mind map (peta konsep) Fisika, dapat diunduh:

#maaf ya sekalian promosi,hehe,itu hanya sebagian dari tugas yang ada, dan masih banyak lagi yang lain.

Entah mengapa hampir di setiap tugas yang diberikan beliau, saya seolah ingin terus melakukan sesuatu yang maksimal (perfect) agar menjadi yang terbaik, sehingga tanpa sengaja saya pun berkompetisi dengan siswa lain. Rupanya pak Rudy berhasil memotivasi kami. Pak Rudy seperti memiliki medan magnet yang sangat kuat sehingga mampu menarik saya untuk berusaha sekeras-kerasnya. Di saat kami mulai suntuk atau pun tegang, beliau selalu hadir dengan kekonyolannya dan membagikan pengalaman serta energi berupa semangat yang mampu saya serap dengan cukup baik. Yang awalnya terasa ngantuk, kadang-kadang berubah menjadi ketegangan yang mampu membuat semua mata MELEK. Semuanya berubah dengan seketika, seringkali tangan menjadi gemetaran, rupanya gelombang yang dialirkan begitu dahsyat. Beliau menciptakan salah satu gerakan sebelum belajar. Gerakan tersebut layaknya gerakan power ranger yang hendak berubah, hmm sayangnya saya tidak punya video nya, namun gerakan itu diselingi dengan sorakan “ASIK-ASIK JOSS” dengan berulang-ulang. Hal yang paling sering membuat saya tertawa terbahak-bahak adalah ketika beliau bercerita di depan disertai dengan mimik wajah dan body language (bahasa tubuh) yang sangat konyol dan kocak, itulah hal yang sangat melengkapi asiknya belajar dengan pak @fisikarudy.

Di awal tahun 2014 ini, beliau mengadakan lomba ngeblog ini. Pada awalnya, saya tidak berminat mengikuti perlombaan ini, namun entah mengapa lagi-lagi hati saya tergugah setelah mendengar beberapa motivasi yang beliau sampaikan pada saat pertemuan pertama di tahun 2014 ini (7 Januari), ya lumayan kan hadiahnya, kalau pun saya tidak menang juga tidak apa-apa, yang penting saya sudah berusaha keras. YOU CAN IF YOU BELIEVE AND TRY, SO DON’T NEVER GIVE UP. Semuanya terasa ringan jika dikerjakan dengan hati, trimakasih kepada my motivator teacher “pak Rudy Hilkya”. O ya!
