A teacher

Teaching profession is very different from other, its lifelong learning profession in the world and requires multi-skills. Sitting in manager chair rotating doesn’t meet expectation of young learners in the School. In the eyes of public, teachers are well disciplined and respected, it’s just a history in those years and now scenario is different. In the world of technology, people expectation is so high from the teachers, expect their child to perform well in every subjects but never realize intellectual capacity of the child and the types of support they rendering.  Usually every teachers are committed and dedicated to service, carries bulky plans daily with appropriate teaching materials, rarely uses chair placed in classroom instead busy monitoring and supporting the learners. In order side, teachers are handicapped because of words “exemplary & role model” even then proud to serve under comfortable structure/shed.

When I recalled life in very remote school that I served for eight years, it still pricks my heart and even dreams frequently. The difficulties that I faced in every summer monsoon because it totally gets disconnected and forget about communication facilities. I served lone for three consecutive years but beauty things in remote is healthy life. Publics in remote community are supportive and cooperative and has high degree of trusteeship. They are real heroes and heroines for accepting change. “Teaching is a very noble profession that shapes the character, caliber, and future of an individual. If the people remember me as a good teacher, that will be the biggest honor for me.” – A.P.J Abdul Kalam. Among the hard jobs around, to be good teacher is hardest because we cannot fulfill every individual’s expectations and wishes.

Oh! My fellow teachers and teachers that taught me in the past, I salute your greatness service and enlightening the young future citizen to be dynamic leaders. I too works with full potential to make difference in children’s life with infusing variety of Bhutanese values. May 2^nd is a golden day every year, day to pay tribute to father of modern Bhutan (third king) as His Majesty introduced modern education and that day also observe as Teacher’s Day coinciding with the Birth Anniversary of 3rd King. Let me take this privilege to wish HAPPY TEACHER’S DAY to all the teachers of our country, GOD blessed you and wishes to continue making difference in our young children. Our timeless effort is always credited with thousands of smiles which will be success of being good teacher in entire life.

Thanks.
