Day 10: Dec 15th 2013
I quit my teaching job four years ago. I still remember those days when getting tired from work had an altogether different charm.Sharing my knowledge, creating lessons that were engaging and treating each child as a capable and equal individual has been the sweetest experiences I ever had. Though the teaching period was short for me, I developed a strong connection with my students and co teachers.
I so much wish to get the opportunity of educating young minds again. By the end of the day you feel you have not only helped a child to learn academically but also to make them realize their strengths. Understanding the maze that a young mind builds within himself/herself is really challenging. We as teachers are in a dilemma and there is always a fear of over protecting them.
Here are few lines that I wrote long time back
I found a way,
I changed for myself.
I broke up with silly thoughts,
Instead made wisdom my friend.
My dream of making a difference is coming true,
As I have found a teacher within me.
Now all I need is a finishing touch,
A touch that would make me a role model
