1. Teaching is the profession
that teaches all the other
professions.
THERE IS TRULY NO BEGINNING OR
END IN BEING A PROFESSIONAL.
IT IS A LIFELONG LEARNING CURVE.
Once children
learn how to
learn, and the
essence of
teaching is to
make learning
contagious,
one idea
spark
another."
All students have
had hundreds of
teachers in their
lifetimes. A very
few of these
teachers they
remember as
being
exceptionally
good.
2. To bring out a good human being with more
values of life, caring, competent, patriotic
individuals and love for fellow being
globally.
To provide quality education and care to
students which prepares them to face all
challenges in their life.
Schools are social
“enterprises” with
focus on enhancing
achievements and
well-being fo their
students,
irrespective of their
personal
circumstances
3. Teaching today is a more
complex, more demanding
profession than it ever was in
the past
SOCIETY AT LARGE HAVE TO SAY ABOUT
THESE CHALLENGES?
“YOU SHOULD BE MOTIVATING THE
STUDENTS!”
“YOU SHOULD BE RAISING THEIR SELF -
ESTEEM!”
YOU SHOULD BE HELPING THEM REACH
THEIR FULL POTENTIAL!”
“YOU WORK SIX HOURS A DAY, YOU GET
THREE MONTHS’ VACATION EVERY YEAR,
AND YOU WANT MORE MONEY?”
BUT LET ME ASK, WHO MOTIVATES YOU?
WHO TAKES CARE OF YOUR SELF -ESTEEM?
Challenges you
face :
Students who
come to school
unprepared to
learn.
Student who
attention-
deficit
disorders.
Administrators
who won’t back
you up.
Parents who
disregard the
importance of
learning.
4. Hot heads and cold hearts never solved anything.
Sure glad the hole is
not at our side
5. GLOBAL CONTEXTS
As 21st century global citizens we
face a future of uncertainty, yet one
with both challenges and
opportunities.
We have to prepare citizen-workers
for a turbulent future – terrorism
threats, environmental degradation,
financial crisis, food scarcities...
Huge transformations in the global
economy, emergence of the
knowledge economy, vast changes
introduced by communication and
information technology.

but the most responsive to change”.

7. Good teachers are costly,
but bad teachers cost more.
A TEACHER WHO IS ATTEMPTING
TO TEACH WITHOUT INSPIRING
THE PUPIL WITH A DESIRE TO
LEARN IS INSPIRING THE PUPIL
WITH A DESIRE TO LEARN IS
HAMMERING ON COLD IRON.
"Poor teacher
tells
Good teacher
teaches
Great teacher
inspires the
students"
Give a man a
fish and you
feed him for a

man how to
fish and you
feed day; teach
a man how to
fish and you
feed him for a
lifetime.

outcomes– not did I like it, or did the students like it–
but WAS IT EFFECTIVE?

To attain wisdom, remove things every day.

I like a teacher who gives you something to take

A STORY OF PENCIL
A boy was watching his grandmother was writing a letter. At one point, he asked: Are you writing a story about what we’ve done? Is it a story about me?
His grandmother stopped writing her letter and said to her grandson: I am writing about you, actually, but more important than the words is the pencil I’m using. I hope you will be like this pencil when you grow up.
Intrigued, the boy looked at the pencil. It didn’t seem very special. But it’s just like any other pencil, I’ve ever seen!
That depends on how you look at things. It has five qualities which, if you manage to hang on to them, will make you a person who is always at peace with the world.
First quality: You are capable of great things, but you must never forget that there is a hand guiding your steps. We call that hand God, and He always guides us according to His will.
Second quality: now and than, I have to stop writing and use a sharpener. That makes the pencil suffer a little, but afterwards his much sharper. So you, too must learn to bear certain pains and sorrows, because they will make you a better person.
Third quality: the pencil always allows us to use an eraser to rub out any mistakes. This means that correcting something we did is not necessarily a bad thing. It helps to keep us on the road to justice.
Fourth quality: what really matter in a pencil is not its wooden exterior, but the graphite inside. So always pay attention to what is happening inside you.
Finally, the pencil’s fifth quality: it always leaves a mark. In just the same way, you should know that everything you do in life will leave a mark, so try to be conscious of that in your every action.
Never Quit – MOHAMAD ALI I AM THE CHAMPION
TRY TO KEEP COURAGE OF LINCOLN
Once upon a time there was a young man who was born to poverty-stricken parents. He wasn’t able to go to school, so he taught himself. He dreamed of being a lawyer, but no one would hire him. When he completed military service, he decided to use his self-administered study of the law to enter politics, so he ran for a seat in the senate. He was defeated by a large margin.
So he temporarily retired from that and politics and became a storekeeper. His store went bankrupt, and he spent the next seventeen years of his life paying off his debts, picking up whatever odd jobs he could. But his daydreams continued to urge him on. He fell in love, married, struggled to support his family, and then again entered politics – as a candidate for Congress. He was elected by very narrow margin, but when he ran for re-election, he was humiliatingly defeated. Next he tried to get a position with the US land office, but they refused to hire him.
It seemed that everywhere he went, he was ridiculed because of his poor background, has lack of education and social graces. He held up his head, ignored his hurt pride, and decided to run for the US senate. Both his friends and enemies, even his family, laughed at him behind his back. Once again he was defeated. Eventually, he was nominated for Vice- President at the political convention of a major party. On the final ballot, he lost again – to a political unknown. Running again for the senate, he waged a campaign which captured the imagination of a nation, but which resulted in only another defeat.
Still he never stopped following his “daydreams”. He didn’t dwell on his failures. He continued to intensely and fiercely pursue the ideals and principles in which he believed. And finally, at the age of fifty, Wounded by heartache and scarred by repeated defeats, but still clinging fast to his destined life path, Abraham Lincoln President of the USA.

One research study conducted by the University of Kansas Center for Research on Learning evaluated a group of 87 teachers from different schools. The results of the study indicate that 85% of those teachers who receive ongoing support from instructional coaches implement newly learned instructional methods, a factor that enhances teacher quality. In another study conducted by the same group, research indicates that teachers who do not receive such support implement newly learned strategies at only a rate of 10% (Joyce and Showers, 2002). (a role of coach is to be an advocate for the ”right conditions”)
This research indicates that coaching does indeed lead to successful adoption and effective use of proven instructional methods, with one crucial caveat: The right conditions--in the form of administrative support and qualified coaches--must be in place. In schools in which either of these elements is missing, implementation success rates have been low.
Research indicates that teachers who are supported by instructional coaches are more likely to implement newly learned instructional strategies (University of Kansas, Center for Research on Learning).
