Once I asked a boy ," Do you want to become a Monitor? " He replied, "No, I am happy being a student. " I was surprised. Before this I couldn't find a boy who doesn't wish to become a head boy or monitor. To my curiosity, I asked him ," Why ? "
He replied ," Because when I will become monitor my responsibility will also increase. Then my focus may deviate from my goal . "
That boy had created a good impression on me . So young boy (may be of 6th grade ) , so mature talks .
I continued to talk , " Will you tell me about those responsibilities, please? "
That tiny ,innocent boy continued to reply ," Sir, the first responsibility is to mind the class , and when we mind the class , some of our friends become our enemy, then after they may try to take revenge after school. Second thing ,we need to run always after class teacher. Sometimes we need to mind the class entire day . Sometimes teachers appreciate us or shout us . During all these process , we miss our studies. We need to complete all our pending work at home . So we get less time to play .I want to enjoy greedom and mischievousness of a child . So I don't want to become a monitor. "
I became wordless . I kept silence. Deep silence. I was engrossed in thinking. So beautiful his face was looking while he was replying!
I noticed brightness in his eyes , firmness in his speech , innocence in his styles. He made me to predict his future. My search was over . He and I became best friends. We use to play sometimes. Sometimes we use to study .
In this blog ,I will share my 21 years teaching experience. It is dedicated to students .
