Teaching is not an easy task or profession especially if you’re not onto this profession. When it comes in teaching, lot of paper works are waiting for you to check and record it. Lesson plans that need to finish on time, test papers, instructional materials. But those things are not what teaching is. Teaching is making a difference on the life of the learner. Making them a different person and making them to be a productive member of the society.
The good teacher knows and understands students, how they develop and learn. This does not mean overly affectionate which can be emotionally training for the mentors. The best teachers are genuinely interested in helping the students to learn and have a keen desire to make a difference in their lives. Every teacher wishes the best for her students. Teacher is the second parents and school is the second home of the students. Teachers are happy to see that their students succeeded after a long years of studying.
Teaching makes the child discover new things in life. Teaching is helping and molding them to be what they desire for themselves and to their country as well. It is also giving your time for them as an attention and sign that you truly care for them and showing them how important they are in our community. Students appreciate the little time you got for them just to teach them even though you are not related with them.
Teaching is not a job well suited to everyone. It is a noble profession. It is about conveying a love of learning and discovery. A teacher lives to serve. A teacher is dedicated to learning, to his or her discipline, to his or her students, and to making the future the best possible place for all of us to live. Every child is unique and has to be treated in different way. If the teacher believes in that child and encourages him, the child will perform beyond expectations. Most of all, teacher’s greatest gift is that you can make a difference to someone’s life and this can be very rewarding.
