Montessori Mahila College of Education organised a talk on the ‘role of teachers in present society’ here on Thursday.
On the occasion, the speakers said the role of teachers was pivotal in shaping young minds. Teachers should be able to prepare young people face the future with confidence and responsibility. Value-based education is the need of the hour, they said.
It is the teacher who through the classroom imbibes the feeling of ‘Share and Tell’, ‘Give and Take’, ‘Think and Do’ in students. Above all, teachers should realise that learning is a continuous process, they added.
Montessori Educational Institutions director and correspondent V. Koteswaramma, D.S. Kothari Training Institute principal A. S. Ramakrishna and Montessori College principal G. Padma Tulasi spoke.
