Education is not the learning of facts, but the training of the mind to think. - Albert Einstein
Teaching profession concerns not simply with passing on information or knowledge but with awakening a desire to learn and provide means of learning. Teaching is never tedious. It is full of change and variety. Teachers stimulate intellectual curiosity and inculcate the spirit of enquiry, of a national and scientific outlook. But to know is not enough. If there is desire to share the knowledge, then it is also essential to know how to do it. The essence of all good teaching is growth, so that the teacher shall keep abreast not only of the growing students, but of changing ideas in his subject in a changing world. For this, one should remain interested and involved in exploring all the methods of communication.
