Teaching





Teaching : an experience everyone should experience at least once I'll say.... U can feel the energy of students, the enthusiasm of young minds when you teach a new method or trick, the 1000W joy and pride in the face of a student when his answer is right and you congrats him/her.



The attentions seekers when you throw a question from the podium, the ' extracurricular activities' happening in back benches, the ones who tries to avoid an eye contact, the ones who always nodes whatever you say, the ones who always writes down from neighbours books, the doubtful Thomases who checks whether the question is out of syllabus, the betraying Judas who reminds about homework, the ones who look at you like you are an alien dressed like a human, the ones who forgets to teleport their body, the 'politicians' who come late, the 'time keepers' who frequently looks at their watch when u are about to cross the alloted time, the ones who pretends writing while you give notes, the sincere smiling ones who know  that the teacher also knows that they are not listening, the freelance artists who decorate the tables, books with original works of poems pen-drawing etc, the aesthetic ones who always check the mirror, the future communication engineers engaged in Facebook, WhatsApp etc, the live reporters who updates the status as ''grandma was right, I have done some sin in past life #AttendingMathsClass'', the photographer colleagues who suppliment the reporters with sleeping selfies from backbench, the lovers who communicate via end to end encrypted sign language....


Oh yaa, classrooms are very  diverse. Actually it is unity in diversity. And by unity I mean the ostrich like pose of students when a question is asked from the previous portions. For me all of these are fine, unless the decibel level reaches the sound pollution level. All these reminds you how you where in your school days. Yea, teaching gives a deja-vu like feeling and everybody should experience it.

Caution: beware the reporters , they may update the status as "attending a boring maths class" and even may tag you. ( hope that  the principal won't like and share it in your fb wall)

Peace!
