It was with great sadness that I read a Facebook post by MAZ International School that my ex-Maths teacher Francis Sta Maria passed away on Saturday.
Mr Francis was a strict and disciplined teacher and, no doubt, students were afraid of him in class. The scariest moments would be when, in utter silence, we would pray and hope not to be called out in front of the class to answer a Maths equation. He had an interesting way of narrating and commenting. Using colonial English, he would shout “Nonsense!” or “This is utter rubbish!” if a student solved a Maths problem wrongly or if we showed mischief. He would blow his whistle and point a finger at you while calling your name.He knew and remembered each and every one of us, whichI remember that he loved Bosnia. It was during the 1990s and news about the war was still fresh.
