Be Anything You Want To Be

Surely choosing to become a teacher, in a world where many focus on becoming rocket scientists, actors, models, engineers are not easy. The thing with teaching is, even though it is a profession that is required in every profession, which means that every area requires teaching, tutoring, and training and therefore teachers.

Make Mistakes And Learn From Them

We have seen our teachers make mistakes multiple times. While discussing concepts, explaining them to us or while taking a class test. It has happened with all of us. We need to remember how teachers are not some supreme beings, who are always right. They make mistakes and they accept their mistakes.

Rather than teaching wrong things, the teachers focus on learning from their mistakes, something that students of all ages must focus on doing.

Teachers are the best example to show how unity works. Whenever there is a situation concerning the students or the syllabus, you would see all the teachers coming together, putting all their private and personal problems aside. Teachers have always spoken and taught us that teamwork wins over every crisis.
