The impressions made by the teachers, the values instilled by them and their very demeanor directly influences and affects students beyond our imagination. They mould the convictions and perceptions of students and their influence remains with them throughout. Teachers hold the key to transform lives and society at large. Through their service and sacrifice, they build the future citizens and nation. There is a wealth of talent and potential within every child and good teachers make every effort to unlock this wealth and empower children to discover their calling in life. The very etymology of the word education derived from Latin word ‘educare’ itself means ‘to bring out’. Life is all about learning and in this process of learning teachers themselves ought to be lifelong learners and play a role of assisting and facilitating the best out of every student.
