My teaching experience

Published 2019-04-28

I was a teacher at “Prothom Surjo”, a specialized school that is run for unprivileged children from Paribag, Dhaka. The children are from slums at Paribag. They hardly have their food, let alone education. In 2016, I joined that school as a music teacher. It was a totally unpaid job. But I did this from my social responsibility. I tried to teach them songs and guitar playing. Some of the students were very talented. Even they’ve got prizes in some contests held in Dhaka. Apart from the study, we used to organize programs at national events. I tried to teach them not only in academic aspects but also tried to teach them moral values. And I feel so lucky that my students love me a lot. Even after all these days, though I am not connected with them, they keep in contact with me regular basis.
Following my passion for teaching, I got an international teaching internship opportunity at Delhi Public School, India for 8 weeks. I took science and music classes there. I love and enjoy sharing ideas with young minds. I believe changing the world is a bit hard but inspiring a mind is comparatively easy. That's my motto is for teaching my students. I do inspire students regardless of their merit position. I strongly believe, every student is unique and has their own sort of strength. I love to find those inner potentials in my students.
