👨‍🏫Specialty of teachers 👩‍🏫

 

An old man meets a young man who asks:

“Do you remember me?”⁴

And the old man says no. Then the young man tells him he was his student, And the teacher asks:

“What do you do, what do you do in life?”

The young man answers:

“Well, I became a teacher.”

“ah, how good, like me?” Asks the old man.

“Well, yes. In fact, I became a teacher because you inspired me to be like you.”

The old man, curious, asks the young man at what time he decided to become a teacher. And the young man tells him the following story:

“One day, a friend of mine, also a student, came in with a nice new watch, and I decided I wanted it.

I stole it, I took it out of his pocket.

Shortly after, my friend noticed that his watch was missing and immediately complained to our teacher, who was you.

Then you addressed the class saying, ‘This student's watch was stolen during classes today. Whoever stole it, please return it.’

I didn't give it back because I didn't want to.

You closed the door and told us all to stand up and form a circle.

You were going to search our pockets one by one until the watch was found.

However, you told us to close our eyes, because you would only look for his watch if we all had our eyes closed.

We did as instructed.

You went from pocket to pocket, and when you went through my pocket, you found the watch and took it. You kept searching everyone's pockets, and when you were done you said ‘open your eyes. We have the watch.’

You didn't tell on me and you never mentioned the episode. You never said who stole the watch either. That day you saved my dignity forever. It was the most shameful day of my life.

But this is also the day I decided not to become a thief, a bad person, etc. You never said anything, nor did you even scold me or take me aside to give me a moral lesson.

I received your message clearly.

Thanks to you, I understood what a real educator needs to do.

Do you remember this episode, professor?

The old professor answered, ‘Yes, I remember the situation with the stolen watch, which I was looking for in everyone’s pocket. I didn't remember you, because I also closed my eyes while looking.’

_This is the essence of teaching : one need not humiliate to teach._

_*Happy Teachers day !*_

Happy Teacher's day

Teachers’ Day is

celebrated in India on

5 September every

year. It is the birthday

of Dr. Sarvepalli

Radhakrishnan. This

great son of India was

an outstanding scholar

and teacher. Later on

he became the Vice

President of Indian

republic when Dr.

Rajendra Prasad was

the President of India.

When he died,

Radhakrishnan became

the President.

Teachers’ day is

observed to pay

respect to the

teachers of our

country. We also pay

our respect to our own

teachers. Teachers are

regarded as the back-

bone of our society.

They have the

greatest contribution

to build up the

characters of students

and help them to

become ideal citizens

of our country.

The teachers teach

students most

carefully and sincerely

and love them as their

own children. We owe

them more than our

parents. Our parents

bring us up and give us

food and drink for our

survival, but teachers

arouse our hearts with

light of knowledge and

remove all sorts of

ignorance. The study

that we do at schools

and colleges build the

foundation of our

character.
