Teaching is a noble profession


                         Teaching is a noble profession

.
              Teaching is a profession that teaches all the other profession, most of kids from the very first grade wants to become a teacher. Teaching is a noble profession.  Teachers teach other by sharing their knowledge Knowledge is the only thing or a skill that increases on sharing,

 “The more you share the more you learn.”
           

 A teacher needs to understand his students and deal with them patiently. A teacher should be such that the students look forward to attend his classes, they should also able to motivate their pupils, keeping in mind, and the fact that they gain maximum knowledge. For the teachers, the day does not get over with the school bell. They needs to grade students homework, assignment, project and even prepare next day’s lesson plan. In spite of this busy tiresome job, a good teacher remains calm and cool. The comfort and easiness with which a teacher handles the naughtiest fellow of the class and explains out the lesson with ease shows their real skill.


For elementary school teachers, it’s tougher. They need to have knowledge of a broad range of content in sufficient depth to convey the information in meaningful ways to the students. For secondary school teachers, it usually means having an in-depth command of one or two specific content areas such as mathematics or biology. Time is one of the most precious resources a teacher has. Good teachers have learned to use this resource wisely. It is the consensus, across time and among professionals, that “the noble profession” is synonymous to teaching. No one sees the need to challenge this assertion perhaps because it is grounded on very solid reason or simply because once in our lives we were lucky enough to learn from a teacher who changed us in ways we never imagined we could.  Teaching, being the noble profession, entails not any a heap of responsibility but also great expectations. The principles underlying these responsibilities and expectation are the reason why teaching is a understanding or skill but more importantly they motivate students to learn, and nurture their enthusiasm for learning. One can satisfy this bundle of expectations any when one has passion in them. Teaching most always have substance. Teachers hold the privilege of shaping calling worthy of honor and respect. Teaching requires much passion. Teachers not only impart knowledge and molding the minds of the next generation. This huge responsibility requires them to be and the top of their game-researching and the current literature, issues, and concerns in the profession as well as continuously honing and updating their knowledge and teaching skills. Teaching demands time-a good deal of it. A teacher’s job does not start at seven in the morning and ends at five in the afternoon. It extends over lunch breaks, weekends, even holidays when a teacher dedicates all those extra hours in checking paper, constructing tests, writing lesson plan, and all the other million things needed to ensure the students get educated in the best possible way.


 “You can teach a student a lesson for a day; but if you can teach him to learn by creating curiosity, he will continue the learning process as long as he lives.”


         Lastly, teaching is done for the priceless joy of it. It is about the love of learning and sparking that same love of learning and sparking. It is being asked the question, “if you could do it over again, would you still choose to teach?” and answering “yes” in a heartbeat.
