TEACHER- The synonym for ‘backbone’
Very aptly said by someone—
“A teacher is like a road that allows all the students to go ahead and always remains static at his place to make his students dynamic to achieve their GOALS.”
Up till now in my life my teachers have been the greatest gift given by God to me. Frankly speaking, I think, I am lucky enough to learn and grow under their guidance.
So, through this prose I would like to express gratitude to my lovely teachers.
I remember in class VI, Ma’am Ashi Gaur was our class teacher. At that time I was on some medication for recovering from ill health, she was the only one who cared for me like a mother. How I wish to meet her, in the future sometime, hopefully! Then in class VIII, our class teacher was Ma’am Rita Bansal, who on the outside was very strict and particular about her students’ discipline but on the inside she was a very soft-hearted soul, just like a coconut. Then I met Ma’am Elvira Fernandez who is my reading and writing inspiration. She helped me to inculcate the habit of reading. Though earlier many teachers insisted on the same I never paid attention but, I don’t know what kind of magic was there in Ma’am’s voice that touched me to the core, it was very convincing.
Then during these online classes because of the pandemic, Ma’am Meenakshi Malhotra, our biology teacher became our counselor. I’m sure no one can teach biology better than Ma’am. She is the one who makes her students physically, mentally and emotionally strong.
Although, my all teachers who taught me up till now in my life are very special to me, but with these teachers I have some very special memories which are extremely close to my heart.
I’m truly blessed to have them in my life. If parents are the heart for their child, then teachers are their backbone because without them we are weak.
I would like to conclude my write-up with a big THANK YOU to all my teachers. THANK YOU SO MUCH, my dear teachers for you being – YOU!
