                        Writing every day is ………….. Seemingly waste of time!               Everyday writing something is a tough task. It is like standing before the sun and to challenge it. Sometime the person is clueless about what contents are. It also makes him to sit in the corner for an hours and seemingly wastes a priceless time. However what he keeps the thought in his mind that also leads him on the mission. That’s why it cannot be ignored by him. It is whether a big or small, but it ignites his mind to go for something.         Consequently it becomes his identity and style. Further it brings honour to him and establishes his status. Otherwise he would die as a common man. Therefore it is a high time to him to celebrate the moment he starts penning down his feelings.                       ...

                    The parenting skill- Today’s requisite......!                 Yesterday I came across my friend, a doctor by the profession in the evening. After many days we met and initially had general talk. I asked him if anything was new to be shared. He replied that he was confused about his son. I asked further him what he wanted to share. He told that his son was an impatient at many things. Every time he was doing the task in a hurry. He didn’t concentrate upon the work properly. He was somewhat like the impatient and naughty. His character and nature were changed. He became argumentative too.                   After that I requested him to accept him what he is. May be he was what the atmosphere and surrounding people. The child is influenced by everything either technology or human nature or language or attitude. These are taken into...

                             Why noise became a headache! Today on 27 November,2019 I had first period at 11 com and science in the girls’ section. As planned, I took them at the library in order to enhance the reading habit. At first I put instruction before them about what books and the newspaper to be read. We reached at the library and dragged the chairs with creeching sound. Then everyone grabbed either a book or the newspaper. Therefore I became pleased on seeing them to start reading. However they started talking with one another. I raised question at them not to speak in the library. I told them to maintain silence as decorum of the place.  Again they slowly resumed murmuring while reading. At same time I was going through the newspaper. Immediately I lost the temper and scolded them for disturbing others. For a while they looked into the books and tried to show me that they were reading someth...

             A bus driver and his handling to the death.                                                   Today, on 25/11/2019, Monday as usual I reached at bus stop to take a bus for Navasari.  Every day I used to go by the same bus. Before taking the bus, I bought ‘The Times of India’ newspaper. After some time the bus arrived on the platform. I had my seat near the driver facing the front glass of the bus. Easily I could see in the front along the driver’s activity. He was like my friend and familiar face to me. So I daily talked with him as soon as I had my place. On that day I had some communication with him on his routine. At same time I kept reading the newspaper and looking in the front.               ...

                            A reality of the freelancing work.                                 Freelancing is not a cup of tea, but tough task.

                            A double standard in the life. Preaching is easier, not practicing. Similarly it goes to our daily life. Sometime we think ourselves as correct and perfect, but when we are on wrong path. At a time we either keep quiet or run away. That we think as an authentic. Here whose role is crucial, either education or human being or culture? On asking, most of us stick to reply, “Don’t know” policy. Better let me illustrate this.                             Some days ago, I was at Vesu, Surat in the evening for some educational work. I finished my work after a while, started to come at my area. So suitably I was coming through Vesu main road. As soon as I was near Khadi Bridge, seeing many bikers drive on the wrong side and they were of large number creating a ...

                                  The drama activity of 7th class. The drama activity is a suitable to the second language learners. It helps them to hone their speaking and presentation skills. They communicate naturally in that state. They don’t realize that they are actually learning English language naturally. Further it enables them to have confident, clarity of thought, and expression skill. In that direction, I assigned my 7th class students to prepare the drama on ‘At the book store’ and ‘At the chocolate shop’.  At first they were formed into two groups. The topics for the drama were easy and known to them. So as they didn’t feel difficulty to communicate with one another and preform it. The objectives of the first drama were to promote the reading skills and benefits of it. In the Second drama, the students had to convince others about the reasons of popularity of various chocolates...

We see and read different comments as well as images upon Social Medias like what’s up, Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, and Instagram etc. sometime we like these comments and also appreciate it. But we also come to know the comments inappropriate to these posts or stories. That same thing happened with my friend. It was somewhat funny and interesting one.

There he frequently requires teachers for his school. Some time he finds difficulty to get the teachers. So he advertises his school ad in the local newspapers.   But this time he uploaded his school ad on his Facebook account and...

            Fun and creativity on the first day at school!          On the first day at school I carried out number of creative and innovative activities. It was taken in order to bring excitement and fun among the students. They came after 21 days and might feel detachment and uncomfortable. That’s why these activities were pre-planned. I thought that the students would be helped to find mood. Further it ignited fire within them. Slowly and gradually they kept monotonous at the school gate. So I was ready from the first period. I was at 11 com and science and introduced the activity of energy saving. I just wrote down the sentence on the black board and asked them to write 20 ideas for it. -         Write 20 ways to conserve the energy and submit within 20 minute      All of them started to think and jotted down their ideas. That way I brought them into...
