My Teacher, My Hero!

I SALUTE YOU, DEAR TEACHERS!

     There is no other profession like teaching. It can be very exciting, depressing, rewarding, exhausting and can be extremely fun. Teaching is a very demanding career to choose. It is also the most rewarding one. A person who will choose to become a teacher someday should understand and know the importance of imparting something to your students.

     Teacher should also play a different role in the classroom: educator, guide, counselor, facilitator, moderator, coach, disciplinarian and motivator. They should also be ready for the demands outside the classroom: computing grades, making lesson plans, doing visual aids, checking papers and some other school related which they cannot do inside the class. They should also be prepared in playing a role within the team: combine efforts and ideas with their mentors, colleagues, supervisors, as well as parents to create a good environment conducive for learning and to develop new skills and techniques in Teaching. They should also continue to upgrade or update tin learning new things and techniques and should always find a way to encourage students to learn to reach their full potential. 

     Teachers in my country, are considered as the modern day heroes. They are the ones who gave their lives just to provide the right education needed by the children in any parts of the country. They shoulder a very difficult task of providing a better education to the country's future leaders. 

     With these qualities, teachers are the heroes we encounter everyday. Most days, they are rarely appreciated for their efforts, and yet, it is them who keep us from submitting to the tragedies that man’s worst enemy — himself — often bringing. Failure, duplicity, deceit, selfishness, pride and sloth. As their students, we fight such enemies early in our loves. As our teachers, they are the modern heroes — they do not slay monsters. They save us from becoming one.
