Teachers are Human, they have their Lighter moments too!



Teachers are human and they have their lighter moments too! It is a well-known fact that apart from teaching in classes they have a lot of things to do! They connect with each other during lighter moments. They host and organise farewells that are heavily emotional moments! Teachers are loved by their students come what may, and this becomes evident during circle times, class photograph sessions, assemblies and excursions.

The true humanness of teachers is revealed in many ways, especially in informal settings away from class. In class, even their scoldings are loaded with love and care. If they didn't care for their students, teachers would never check their students!

Teachers have their lighters sides too. They also need the love and affection of their students. They need nurturing (even though they are adults) perhaps more than their students! They are all alone in class, while students are surrounded by their friends. Often a single teacher handles more than thirty different students. This in itself is a remarkable feat, that the society needs to appreciate!

What happens in class is sacrosanct and sacred for the teachers and their students. This sacredness can never be shared even with colleagues. The pain and sadness felt by a hurt teacher can never be mitigated by a concerned colleague because the moment of hurt and anguish is a very personal one. 


This is a tribute to all those teachers who work their heart out. Be brave, continue doing the good work! Be yourselves and be human!


They love their selfies, and they love to smile, but then why not, for they're human beings too! Deny not their lighter moments nor their smiles, for what would you rather have, a bitter one or a pleasant one?


The jolliest ones are those that teach the "toughest" one, for their joy would disarm ever those that fear Pythagoras and his theorems!

And so, I saw her, ever smiling, the one that would iron out all difficulties and uphill tasks with a positive attitude enough to spare and share!


And so I bid you farewell for I've a class to take, hope to meet you after class, bid thee well!
