Teacher's real empowerment is lifelong learning

Prof. Amina Kishore delivers Teacher’s Day lecture at MANUU

 Hyderabad

A teacher is nothing but magic who makes ‘your wild dreams come true’, ‘dissipates doubts’ and shows ‘passion and compassion’. The notion that a teacher is a powerful being gives a sense of empowerment. But the real empowerment is lifelong learning, moving with time, and receiving approval of learners. These views were expressed today by Prof. Amina Kishore, Former Dean, School of Language, Literature &Indology, MANUU, while delivering lecture “Challenges of being a Teacher in 21st Century” organized by the School of Education and Training, Maulana Azad National Urdu University (MANUU) in connection with Teacher’s Day celebration. 

Prof. Syed Ainul Hasan, Vice-Chancellor presided over. He also released a book of Dr. Taiyaba Nazli, Assistant Professor, Dept. of Education & Training.

Prof. Amina Kishore said that challenge is healthy when it is viewed positively.A teacher cannot be without a challenge. Not a day can pass in the life of teachers when there are no challenges. She pointed out a few challenges such as resistance to change, unwillingness to learn and maintaining balance.

Prof. Ainul Hasan in his presidential speech said that there  is no challenge bigger than classroom. Each class has its own charm. Teachers have to correct themselves. He considered that teacher is the most respected person in any establishment and their identity is most important. Teacher must take a decision where to move or where not to move.
