HERO

My Teacher, My Hero A hero is often imagined as someone with extraordinary powers, wearing a cape, or saving the day in a dramatic fashion. However, not all heroes fight in battlefields or appear in movies. Some work quietly, shaping lives and building futures without expecting fame or applause. My hero is my teacher — the one who has left a lasting imprint on my heart and mind. A Guiding Light From my first day in the classroom, I could sense that my teacher was different. They greeted each student with a warm smile and an encouraging tone, making us feel valued and respected. Their voice carried not just knowledge, but also care, passion, and sincerity.

MY PROFESSION

I AM A TEACHER I am a teacher not because I went to college Not because I am taught how to teach Not because I am paid salary Not because I have to teach to live Not because there are no 'better jobs' Not because I'm compelled. Not because I want to be called Sir/Master. I AM A TEACHER because it is my CALLING. Sometimes I look at my certificate, my school, my pupils as I compare it with my salary, I laugh When I look at what I teach, how i teach it, I thank God for taking me through college. But when I sit down and look at the past, how the end has been for some teachers as compared to other professionals, I feel sorry for the profession. But when I remember that it is the TEACHER that produces all other professionals, I feel blessed. I am SATISFIED when I see my students becoming useful to the society. I conclude that teaching is not just my job, It's my CALLING. It's my PURPOSE. I feel proud being a Teacher. I LIVE to TEACH!!! ...

A teacher is very necessary in the educational system because if we have no teacher, the coming generation would be left ignorant. A teacher is a pacesetter. Who is a pacesetter?
