A teacher must be a good judge of qualities of a student

On Saturday, President Ram Nath Kovind said that teachers play an important role in bringing qualitative changes in higher education by recognizing and bringing forth the best qualities of the students. The President said “the discerning eye of a teacher plays a big role in the growth of a student” as he inaugurated a two-day conference called 'Gyankumbh' at Patanjali Yogpeeth. "So you must be sensitive towards your students and ensure that their merit does not go unnoticed because of their poverty or some other handicap," he added. He supported his argument by citing the example of Chanakya who recognized the innate talents of the Chandragupta and raised him to be the most one of the most illustrious kings of ancient India. "Every child is born with a certain special ability. It is the teacher's responsibility to recognize that ability and bring the best out of him," he said. "Even former President APJ Abdul Kalam began dreaming of becoming a rocket scientist after he along with a group of his classmates was taken to the seaside by a teacher who taught them about the flight of birds," the President said and hoped that the deliberations of the events will further highlight the importance of the role of a teacher in a student’s life and will revolutionize the higher education in the nation. He also underlined the importance of the education system which not only imparts knowledge to the students but also inculcate in them a strong sense of values.
