Teacher inspires!
A poor teacher tells;
An average teacher explains;
A good teacher demonstrates;
And a great teacher inspires.
this is the quotation we use to tell about a teacher.
everyone will agree with this.
every teacher comes into one of the four categories mentioned above.
a teacher is the builder of the nation.
Dr.Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan said”the future of the nation is built in the class rooms”.
“there are so many professions in this world,,,
but the satisfaction this profession gives,,,being a teacher,,can never be given by any other profession”.
we can say that there is 90% of effect of a teacher on the child.
the way a teacher teaches;
teacher’s individuality;
the way of guidance;
friendly nature;
are the factors which effect the child’s brain and heart.
a teacher should have 3 most important characters:
1.knowledge:teacher should have more knowledge of his subject and he should always be a student to learn new things from the ever changing world.
that is why Rabindranath Tagore said”a lamp which is burning can only give light to another lamp.”
2.capability to teach:teacher should have the capability to teach,,,such a capability that can reach every mind,,star of the class,average,and the slow learner.
should be ready to give answer to any doubt,a student may ask.
should have the capability of patience.
teaching should go hand in hand with the new methods.
“it is not important what we teach,,it is important,,how we teach.”
“teaching should be a conversation handling the child psychology.”
3.enthusiasm/interest:a teacher who has respect towards his profession,self content,love and affection towards his pupils,who is hard working always,,for the development of the students,,,can be identified as an enthusiastic teacher.
“teacher should encourage,motivate and inspire the children.he should be creative and should be capable of solving the problems of pupils.”
such a teacher,who succeeds in having these three characteristics,,,
is sure to be called as an ideal teacher,,,
and is sure to be in the hearts of students for ever,,,
such a person was Sri.Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan.
think of the wonderful tomorrow of our nation if we can see a Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan in every class!
