A successful teacher is one who will always want to improve, share, learn and grow because these are natural responsibilities of great teachers. Some characteristics of great teachers Set high expectations for all students Have clear, written-out objectives Prepared and organized Engage students and get them to look at issues in a variety of ways Have  strong relationships with their students and show that they care about them as people Exhibit expertise in the subjects they are teaching and spend time continuing to gain new knowledge in their field Communica

War Vs Peace in Class

 A a person reflecting on my own experiences, I have indeed been both the "different" person joining a new school and the one welcoming others into my space. When I joined a new school as a student, I vividly remember feeling a mix of excitement and apprehension. In some instances, I was warmly welcomed by my peers and teachers, which made the transition much smoother. However, there were also times when I felt like an outsider, struggling to find my place amidst established social circles. As a teacher, I have also been in the position of welcoming new students into my classroom. I have always made a conscious effort to create a welcoming and inclusive environment, ensuring that new students feel valued and supported from day one. Looking back, the pros of my own experiences joining a new space include the opportunity for personal growth, the chance to make new connections and friendships, and the exposure to different perspectives and cultures.

War Vs Peace in Class: Nurturing Understanding Amidst Conflict

As educators, we navigate a delicate balance between teaching academic content and nurturing the values that shape our students' character. One of the most profound dichotomies we address is the contrast between war and peace, two forces that have shaped human history and continue to influence our world today. In our classrooms, we have a unique opportunity to foster understanding, empathy, and a commitment to peace amidst the complexities of conflict.

Self Awareness...... love yourself first

How do I improve myself? “ Don't let anyone know too much about you. ”   Tell them what's necessary,  privacy is everything. Think. Everything happens for a reason, learn from your mistakes. There is NO event in my life which hasn't taught me something. Join the 5 A.M. club. Note down your goals precisely. Observe your lifestyle, what are the things which distract you. Eliminate them forthright. Say NO to social media, reel life is way different from real life. Reel life is glamourous, Real life is hardship. Stay away from negative people. I don't have ANY friend. You yourself should be your best friend. Talk to yourself (sometimes), it boosts confidence. I do. LOVE is SHIT. (Until you're successful) Don't let people govern you. Don't let people decide when you'll be happy and when sad. Stop trying to please everyone. You will be misunderstood, somedays you'll feel low, you'll lose your faith, somedays you'll want to end your life
