Phew....Teaching's tough !!!!!

Hello friends....So buddies i am back with an experience that left me dazed for a while...

Me and some of my friends(7 of us) had participated in an event called "Students' Awareness Programme '09" organised by IEEE....Through which, we gotto teach some concepts to the rural as well as urban part of the city(grade 9th and 10th)...i know we are bad learners but still all decided to try ourselves at teaching stuff(funny,isn't it..???!!!!!!)

We made them all acquianted with the topics like "Hybrid vehicles" and" Communication"(sounds pretty tough though,right??? it surely was..!!!!!)....Needless to say,the urban students had an upper hand regarding some stuff....But guys this gap really needs to bridge up if we wish to be so called "Superpower nation"....Anyways this is not exactly why Iam here???

While we were on our way,searching for the school to let ourselves share something with them,we came across the 'eagerness' and 'hungry to learn' behaviour of the people...They were all ears to us...And then when me and my friend Ajinkya were enjoying beautiful curvy ride to a place called Sambhave,we came across a school....Students had been back to their homes,but we managed talking to one of their teachers...He felt so very sorry that it was our last day and that he and his students had really missed something very useful....He still insisted us to visit his remote place,where students really need such aid regarding education...The dedication of that teacher could really have shamed any of the professionals around...The teacher was so hell bent explaining things to us that we both were awestruck(for a moment we had really forgotten that we were there for a competition!!!!!)...The efforts taken by teachers like him are simply amazing...

I don't want to debate nor want to sound like a competitor in an extempore kinda thing...But what bugs me is, are we really heading towards progress???? surely yes,but at what cost???? The fact that the condition in the outskirts of our very own Pune is this worse then we can hardly imagine what the outside scenario is...!!!!!

I do believe that man is a social animal and so we all have a role to play for our society....And I genuinely know,there's no point voicing one's opinion like this than to really do something constructive....

Some incidents do strike you so much that we end up thinking like this...And I am not an exception to it...Just felt like sharing it...Else its on you friends...!!!!!!!!
