Molder of excellent minds,
good habits and attitudes;
an instrument of the creation
of successful professionals
A noble profession as everybody says
untiring services to learners
are what they can always see
without pretensions and mediocrity
No other profession you would see
works are not done from eight to five
daily lesson logs and planning till dawn
and still manages to teach the following day.
When will you ever see
their worth and immeasurable sacrifices
constant follow-up of learners
both in the classroom and home
All we ask is a little love and understanding
to give what they truly deserve
decent pay and benefits
that they long to achieve.

A true echo of a teacher’s expectation!
A noble profession is indeed of a teacher, though he cannot be expected to say no to the monetary rewards for their service to humanity!
He/she creates excellent professionals in various fields, with themselves always remaining as teachers in the lower rung of the ladder ever welcoming the students with a nice smile decorating their face!
Not to recognize them is a big threat to the society as a whole!
I truly agree with the views of the poet as well as Mr Sivagnanam. It’s very true that teachers don’t really get their due especially school teachers. Infact they aren’t respected too & many people look down upon school teachers. They seem to forget without school teachers how would anyone get higher education & jobs. School teachers make strong foundation for the future of one’s life.
Thank you so much Dr. Luzviminda G. Rivera for this exemplary tribute to all teachers. I really love and like it to the max. Keep shining your best!
