It was March of 2019, the beginning of a new academic year. We, the students of the LPE- 06 batch, were waiting for our next class. Some students were gossiping, some were playing games on their smartphones, and I & my friends were making fun with each other. Around 12:10 pm a young man wearing glass with a gloomy face, holding a duster & marker suddenly entered our classroom. Suddenly, all the students became silent because he was our new class teacher assigned to take our IPE class. Then he introduced himself with a smiley face & also took our intro. On the very first day after class, I told my friends that the guy seemed very serious and we should not talk in his class; otherwise he will punish us all.
First Impression of sir according to me |
But after some classes we realized that he was unlike other typical teachers; rather he was so friendly. He took our lessons very carefully & tried to make them easy for us. Sometimes he made fun, sometimes he discussed other non-academic but thought-provoking issues. Even one day he came with a survey form that was based on some interesting questions related to our dreams, hopes, frustrations, likings, and career. Again one day he told us to write something on paper & give it to him. Through these interesting activities, he created a distinct image of him. Most of the students started to like him. Even I know some of my friends who discussed their problems with him after regular class time because they rely on him & he was always there to help. He was not only the teacher of a good student but also the teacher of the students who were backbenchers. He wrote articles about his students and sometimes drew illustrations of them. I want to add that he was the first teacher whose birthday was celebrated in our classroom.
