The real image of a teacher? One needs to step outside the classroom to see that. Students don\u2019t remember The Harappan Civilization or Organic Chemistry or why Newton bothered to understand why the apple fell. They remember how they were gently treated when the rest of the class laughed at their attempts. They remember how they were towering over bullies who made them feel small. They remember the overly used catch phrases of the yesteryear that were so generic, yet remained in their minds even after graduation.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2fec03f elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"2fec03f\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h4 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">When the Classroom Becomes a Safe Space<\/h4>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-26978f6 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"26978f6\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The role of a teacher is rarely spelt out, as it is a job that goes beyond the description.

I won&#8217;t be turned away.<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> They leave the classroom without hesitation and catch up with the person who dared to make them think! Life is always good before somebody bothers to stir up the thinking cells. Teachers are now a safe space. Understanding the tenderness of a young mind, clearing subject based doubts is no longer limited within the confines of a classroom. The staff area, the corridor , the cafe &#8211; are all places where students can reach the person they want. Informal settings bring them out of their shells and make them comfortable saying,<\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> \u201cPlease explain it to me again.\u201d<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> They are less anxious about how it makes them look and more interested to see where they lacked in understanding. And ever so slowly, this comfort seeps its way to the classrooms. However,the corridors are more memorable.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f3c690d elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"f3c690d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h4 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">When Lessons Come Alive\n<\/h4>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-a260424 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"a260424\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Can you really forget a class where you see a yellow flower, while sitting on the grass in the backdrop of mountains? Daffodils were never this memorable with words alone at the school. What about the class, where the class-clown played the bully and his friend, who played the hero that overpowers him through strength and wit? The chapter remains ingrained in memory when students customize the villain and the hero in their own interpretation. The difference occurs when a student is asked, <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cWhat do you think?\u201d<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> The response opens a world of knowledge into how the child thinks. This is not merely a class where they learn why Churchill suffered in his studies. They have profound opinions on what hinders conceptual understanding. When a teacher communicates right, he sees how little he knows of the child\u2019s capabilities.

There is no way an individual carries the key to all the knowledge in the world. But how often do you see people admit that? The older we grow, the more rigid we become about how much of ourselves we expose to the world. In the teaching profession it is considered a shame to not be well versed about any subject matter broached in the classroom. It takes a different kind of confidence to say, \u201c<\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You know what? It&#8217;s interesting. I am not quite sure what it is, but give me a day.

If he is taking the time to find out, he will give me the right answer instead of carelessly throwing around assumption<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">s. What&#8217;s more? It instills the fact that it&#8217;s okay to say I don&#8217;t know.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-b67bfcc elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"b67bfcc\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h4 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">The Good Cop, the Bad Cop and Everything in Between<\/h4>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-4251f77 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"4251f77\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The best part however, is when scolding and disciplining becomes fun. There are times when students are pushed to the edge of their capabilities in the most inconvenient manner. One may love that teacher but run away at the sight of her. This specific side of a teacher is uncontrollable and can not be put down for further improvement. Bad news. But bear it, okay? This happens when the teacher can see clear potential but no way to hone it. They refuse to feel frustrated and push you to the limits to show you that those are not your real limits. This is the teacher who is ready to play the bad guy if he sees a sliver of hope in the child\u2019s abilities. This person will go to lengths to bring out the talent the student refuses to think he may have. These are the defining eras of a child\u2019s life because he is forced to see what is good about him &#8211; whether he likes the process or not. The teacher will bear the hatred and the bad name as long as this child shines where he is supposed to.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-abf3a63 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"abf3a63\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h4 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">The Question That Says \u201cI See You\u201d\n<\/h4>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f53e3cd elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"f53e3cd\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And finally, the one voice that everyone is thankful to hear, saying, \u201cYou seem quiet today.
