The Morning Prayer can be a source of happiness and motivation.

                       The Morning Prayer can be a source of happiness and motivation.
                                    Today I was present at school assembly. As usual there was no regular prayer, but instead there was a song of the Bollywood, “Maula mere Maula mere, aankhe teri itani hasi ke me ban gaya hu…….” The student were seen and looked happy and joyful. I also became mentally happy along with them. Further they looked meditative. On realization of their happiness, I asked some of them why they were happy at that moment. They replied me that it soothed their mind and easily relaxed their mind. That’s why they took an interest in it no hesitantly. One of them pointed out that they would have such thing in daily routine so that they could enjoy the entire day.
                                                    What surprised me that we teachers are not usually ready to supply such materials for their happiness. Later we expect a lot. However it is said that happiness of the mind can bring good outcome. Further we try to keep same things for them that they naturally feel monotonous and disinterested towards their routine. That makes them lazy and lethargic for their studies. I feel any song of good lyrics can be taken as a prayer to their mind. Then everything will be a song for them in a course of the life. They will feel excited and motivated towards their work. What we need from them? Do we need either a bag of certificates or exciting life? Ultimate the choice is ours? That matters on our life and future career. Am I right?

    My teaching techniques for English language learners.     What works in one place doesn’t necessarily help at other side. That is true for teaching and learning at schools and colleges. There are certain reasons such as students' level, their family background, atmosphere, social activities, discipline and awareness factors etc. However, a teacher has to take his techniques based on his experience and observations to the class. So that he can change it from time to time. Being a learner, I jotted down some ideas for my teaching profession. At this stage, I feel that these are to be changed in the course of teaching and learning. 1) Icebreakers:- As soon as I enter the class, I try to use some ideas to make my class fresh, energetic and attentive. Maybe small activities such as a hand up, closing your eyes, taking deep breaths, rolling your hands, moving your body, clapping, touching your forehead, gargling and so on. That prepares my students for learning a language. S
