                              Turning point for the college students!
At the college campus, final year students gathered and had tete-a-tete with one another on the last day. They looked very happy and cheerful. Everywhere they were seen exchanging their contacts. At a time the principal was passing by, so they happily greeted him and he too acknowledged them. He stopped there and asked them about what their future plan was. Many of them shared it with him. Further he questioned them who their ideal person was. All said about particular teacher and others’ name. They felt proud while telling about their ideal teacher and person. Again he shot the question to them why they liked those particular people. They justified their liking by telling that they were friendly, good by nature, and funny. Then the principal changed the question and threw at them.
-        Who made you to learn intensively and constructively?
-        Who prepared you to work hard and seriously?
-        Who pushed you to think and imagine all the time?
             All of them became silent and started thinking. The principal observed and led them into a pool of deep thinking. Automatically they looked serious and slowly said names of those near and dear ones. Moreover they exclaimed that they were strict and disciplined.
                   On that day all of them got the meaning of learning. The principal wished them good luck for better future before leaving the place. But they all started thinking about the way their principal ushered them into learning and made serious about their studies.
              The day brought a list of the people who made them to learn throughout the life. It went through their mind and realized their efforts. So they left the campus thoughtfully and purposefully. It was a turning point in their life. They remembered the principal and his teaching forever.

    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 learnin...
