I had a dream to be a teacher

Chitra Rajesh Brindha Raghavan I had a desire ... when I was in Primary schools say 1952 I used to like some teachers like Subhadra , Janaki, Rama Iyer etc and later in Bangalore Teachers like KSM, KVS and later college lecturers like Sundaresan , Srinivasan , Gangadharan etc ... Although not concentrating in subjects , I used to dream of becoming like one of them .In school stage I was feeling to become a teacher carrying chalk piece, duster and cane stick .., Those days teachers could punish children and were of good character .. At school stage desired becoming a teacher wearing necktie and speaking in English and coming prepared to class with Pythagoras theorem Archimedes principle or some Geometry riders ... imagined questioning students simple things and teaching them well.., Then later in BSC class .. again desired to become a Maths Teacher like Sundaresan , teach all Calculus, Dynamics etc and make some students brilliant to climb the ladder of higher studies 🐸🐸 Later in Evening college studying Law , I hardly listened to the lectures and read all guides myself ... But salil my dreams turned out false as I got employment after BSC in 1967. Later I was trying for becoming an Instructor in Banks training centers but coukdnot succeed ... After retirement I got opportunity to teach Debts recovery act to some students who were deputed by some Banks ...and some Foreign Exchange to CAIIB students ... But here the students were grown up and were just not seriously attentive in the class.. They were not fluent in English and I was not good in Tamil ... Here I have satisfied having been a teacher although all of them preferred back benches and asked for question papers in advance ... Now finally during my last visit to San Jose USA In 2019 to 20 I had occasion the teach Sanskrit to children on Sundays. So my dream of being an eternal teacher remained unfinished 🇦🇮 But I used to teach my wife spoken English and computer directly or through e mail lessons .. but the student teacher relationship was missing and student not obedient.. I taught Physics to my neighbor house girl and my niece at PUC level but they didnot study well. Ofcourse I have taught Maths and Science to my son and daughter during their school days 🇦🇮🇦🇮 So I too join the fold of Teachers although not fully recognized as a Teacher --
