Zindagi Hai To Khwaab Hain
Khwaab Hain To Manzilein Hain
Manzilein Hain To Students Hain
Students Hain To Teachers Hain
Teachers Hain to Zindagi Hai
Zindagi hai to Khwaab Hain…
Teachers and mentors form the core of existence. This is the truth, the only truth, whatever be the form of definition that we may choose to have.
It could be as Khalil Gibran wrote: “The teacher who is indeed wise does not bid you to enter the house of his wisdom but rather leads you to the threshold of your mind.”
Or as Maria Montessori expressed: The greatest sign of success for a teacher… is to be able to say, “The children are now working as if I did not exist.”
The fact that stays on is that a master can tell you what he expects of you. A teacher, though, awakens your own expectations. Teaching, thus, is the greatest act in optimism. As the lines above state, ‘Teachers Hain to Zindagi Hai/ Zindagi Hai to Khwaab Hain…’
No man can be a good teacher unless he has feelings of warm affection toward his pupils and a genuine desire to impart to them what he believes to be of value. It is this feeling and values that form the foundation of students’ success that we at PT Education want to celebrate. In other words, we wish to present a tangible acknowledgment to the force behind the feelings and the values that is also known as a ‘teacher’. If you’re considering teaching as a career, then you should know more about the Colorado teachers retirement system to secure a comfortable and reliable retirement in the future.
May we request the honour of your presence on the 5th of September 2006 to receive this token of gratitude.

Only a teacher can show the right path to the society with the help of his pupils….

I wrote this piece when I was heading Corporate Communications for PT Education… if I were to write something on Teacher’s Day today, it would not be anywhere near this one.
