Mrs. Girija Sharma

Teaching is a profession which can provide great reward to those who choose to pursue it – that is to say it can provide personal, financial and professional rewards.

A good teacher has an ambition not just for oneself but for their class and more specifically, every individual student. A good teacher will make the classroom a place for ambition to thrive through encouragement, creativity, sensitivity and motivation. These attitudes are fundamental for success. Even in the face of difficulty a teacher, must be prepared to take the initiative, to reinstate energy in the classroom and assure that each student is happily reaching his/her full potential.

I feel that for most students, the teacher is a role model – a fact which highlights the need for personal strength and resistance to vice, especially for those teaching impressionable young children. The teacher, as well as providing an academic education, should also be the provider of a good moral example for his/her student to follow demonstrating the advantages of honest and conscientious living.

I would like to be an effective teacher as I teach numerous children which is one of the teacher’s principle responsibilities.

With respect to education, nothing is more effective for animating the mind than a passion of what is being taught. I would like to develop a passion and energy to teach for my subject so that my students will come to realize that although they may face challenges, hard work is beneficial.

Teaching is an immensely enjoyable career, offering a great variety of challenges and opportunities for learning.

A good teacher is like a candle. It consumes itself to light the way for others. I hope that through my work I am able to illuminate the paths of those I guide in VPMS Lohegaon.
