Teacher's day special

Hello!

Education, as defined by concise Oxford dictionary - is the process of educating or being educated. So what do we mean by 'to educate'. People have several notions behind this. For some, this means that to learn something so that he or she can earn some livelihood in future. To some, this can be the basic requirement to survive the future or to stand on his or her own feet. But the true meaning of educating is to build up the prerequisites of life such as skills, character, abilities, communication so that the person could be a good, responsible member of the society.

For this there must be someone who can do this, who can sow the seeds of curiosity at an early stage for the individual to come up with thoughts. Teacher is a requirement for education, the one who guides his or her student and makes sure that he can soon be independent of others. Teachers have been around on the planet since the time of early man. They helped each other, in other words they taught each other and their children to make spears, to cook, to hunt,etc.

Not only Humans get educated. Each and every animal, from sparrows to bears, from tigers to cats, gets first taught by their mothers. So we can say that mothers are the first teachers for ones life and I owe to my mother very much for her constant advice regarding my career and life.

A teacher-student relationship is enormous in terms of friendship, curiosity, learning and it cannot be described in words.Times have changed a lot with social networking sites, digital classrooms, e-teaching techniques, etc. but there cannot be an e-teacher. Because all this without an actual teacher is some thing like a beautiful coconut without any water in it. A teacher is required to be physically present on the other end for a better learning.

In my school days I had a good impression among my teachers. Each and every teachers day used to very memorable for the entire academic year with cakes, cola, chips, confetti, stage shows, dances, gifts and we used to have great days.

In my own life, teachers have played a crucial role in bringing me to a position where I can always say that I was a student of a particular teacher and I would always like to meet once again as a 'student' but not as a 'former student'........

Thank You very much........

To all my teachers...........
