Gurusamarpanam – Honoring The Teachers

“A good teacher must know how to arouse the interest of the pupil in the field of study for which he is responsible. He must himself be a master in the field of study and be in touch with the latest developments in the subject, he must himself be a fellow traveler in the exciting pursuit of knowledge…”                    – Dr. S Radhakrishnan

A good teacher is definitely the most inspiring person in any person’s life. Teachers play a crucial role in moulding our life and destiny. It’s true, no words can actually express the importance of a teacher in our life.

DR. S Radhakrishnan
