“Today, I am a teacher at the community school in my village. I teach Social Studies to the 7th grade and I also help my fellow teachers handle students in Kindergarten. They can be difficult to control sometimes. I am also married and have a 2 years old son. So I am juggling multiple roles. Things are not like it used to be. Societies are changing rapidly and it is a challenge for teachers and schools to keep themselves up to date with what is going on so the students do not miss out on important things. There are social media and computers that every school needs to focus on. And because ‘education’ and ‘school’ are everywhere, parents and students sometimes tend to take it as something that had always existed. But not so long ago we all were deprived of this and we must not forget that. Growing up, I had so much passion towards learning which I find hard to see these days. Everything has become a compulsion. But there are also many families who have, in time, understood the value of education. Every time I see a father genuinely interested in the performance of his child, I think of my father. Every time, I see a girl ask questions repeatedly in class, I see myself in her.”
