As a teacher I always aspire
to nurture and educate my students to become lifelong learners. I believe our
role as educators goes beyond transmitting knowledge – our role is to
nurture our students to become lifelong learners – to teach them the
skills of 'learn how to learn' and to teach them the appreciation and the love
for knowledge. As Socrates said, "I cannot teach anybody anything; I
can only make them think". I believe that teaching is an exciting
adventure in which both the teacher and the students participate and cooperate
to achieve a common goal.
