Teaching is one of the best
extracurricular activities of my life. It’s my passion and I love guiding children
in the best possible way. Well, this is not something that most people would prefer
as an extracurricular activity, but for me it’s my love. I have grown up in a
family where education is closely linked; both my parents are in teaching
profession. I owe my gratitude to parents for inculcating my interest in
teaching. My mom would always show answer sheets of some of the best students
of her school. Today, when I delve into the past, I thank my mom for giving
such an encouraging boost to my knowledge and thought process.
My educational journey has
been a challenging one. I prepared hard for the entrance test to get admission
in a graduate college. I still remember how difficult it was to understand some
concepts. When I interact with students, I give attention to each and every one
of them to make sure they understand the topic. When I was in school, some
teachers would focus only on bright students. For me, teaching is only
successful when you improve every student’s capability; understand their hidden
talent and encourage them.
After finishing my Masters
degree, I worked in several companies, but I was not happy. I met a friend of
mine and shared my dilemma. He advised me to write things that I really want in
my life and just follow them. The very first word I wrote on a piece of paper was
teaching. I love teaching, and I find ways to make my teaching more interactive
and innovative. However, when I meet students, I feel happy, and content from
inside. After every class, I give additional time to share my experience with
students.
