I looked at my watch.It showed two.Teacher entered in the class with an expression of a sadist.The lecturer started the class in a certain pitch and tone (read baritone) .I tried to concentrate on what was being taught..she read a line from the book and then narrated to us by just using synonyms of the words used in book. This continued for long, I looked at my watch again , it was 2:10..ahh!Although it seemed like hours have gone by but its just ten minutes..I yawned (involuntarily ).The lecture continued in the same tone and expression. I feel plagued by the sight of" moving lips."
Arindham Chaudhari says :" The fault is in the teacher if a student falls asleep in the class".Few years back i used to consider it to be a purely noob's statement .But Now, I believe if more than 20% of the class is sleeping then certainly it is the teacher's fault.For me a teacher is one who can mark an imprint of knowledge on anyone's mind. He should have the capability of making ppl his believer.He should posses the caliber to enrapture ppl in his words,ideas
.Okay, I agree that is the definition of a perfect teacher, not being a perfect student i don't expect every teacher to be this idealistic. I only beg them to not be a verbal textbook. For me, It is not less than a scandal to ruin someone's intrest from a subject due to their incoherent skills of teaching .Teaching is a sacred profession .In Indian culture, a teacher is considerd to be a manifestation of divine .It is no less than a crime to give a bad( read boring) name to it.
A 2 minute normal chattery or a joke or qouting a great personalty or citing a live example related to the topic can bring so much liveliness in the topic..even modulating voice while giving lecture can create more attentive environment. Its just these small 2 minute things that classifies them into "so called teachers" or teachers".
