MY GURU IS MY GUIDE

Dear Smt Ameetaji,

 

 

In Hindustan Times ( 05 Sept ) , I came across your article ( Evolving, yet constant : Teacher’s role in Society ) , where you write :

 

 

“  As we move forward in this world of assistive technologies, algorithms, augmented reality and many other frontier technologies, let us remember that at

 

the heart of education are individuals who have given a great deal of themselves, often without recognition or reward “

 

 

There is no question that, in a substantive way , our characters are molded by our teachers. Decades after we leave schools / colleges , our teachers keep

 

whispering silently into our ears , as we think – speak and act

 

 

While undergoing my graduate studies ( Master in Engineering ) at University of Kansas ( 1957-58 ) , on his very first lecture, Prof. Mischke came into the

 

classroom and wrote on the blackboard :

 

 

“  The only education worth its name is Self Education 

 

 

I think his words must have prompted me when, a  few weeks ago ,  I launched >  www.My-Teacher.in

 

 

I invite you to visit this portal ( just type www.My-Teacher.in , in your mobile ) and “ EXPERIENCE “ it

 

 

It is absolutely FREE and does not require any registration or login

 

 

With Regards,
