HELLO to all,

i m very happy that many of u admire the teaching profession.............
but today's teacher role is not that much popular .................. i decided that i will try to become a good teacher...................and try to change the missconcept of teacher role.
in india we r trying to improve teaching profession............by taking industrial training.
INFOSYS company giving training to the teachers so that each teacher knows all the new technologies and current requirements of the market and industry. so that they can teach students accordingly.
but i dont know abt other countires..........well this kind of group will porvide me good knowledge and information............as like as industry.

The nearest I get to indulging it is when I teach students robot
