The School Weekly - 19th February 2018

LEARNING FORWARD
 COMPASSION
Compassion is the feeling of sympathy and understanding each other. Compassion is necessary for all and it plays a pivotal role in the life of teachers. It helps the teachers to understand their students well and create an happy atmosphere in the school campus. Many teachers believe that taking a strict approach towards their students is best. But this is not fruitful. It gives poor results and students build a negative impression of their teacher. They are scared of such teachers and are even scared to ask questions. But on the other hand a compassionate teachers class is lively. The students love and respect their teacher and they start trusting their teacher. They feel free to share their problems with their teachers. The simplest way to show that you care for your students is to motivate and praise them. The teacher can talk privately aside with those who do not feel free to share their problems in the classroom. A teacher should not humiliate or hurt his students feelings. A compassionate teacher is one who does not hold any grudge against his students and forgives him for his mistakes. Love, care, understanding, forgiveness, trust and respect given by a teacher helps his student to be free of stress and leads to him to success.- Bharti Rao/ Educator
