Thanks must go out to my English teachers , Mrs.Murthy and Mrs.C.Rodrigues.They not only taught the subject but also changed me.The title of this blog is a tribute to them;(I remembered your" figures of speech" lesson for so long!!). Mrs. Murthy taught us only for a year and then she retired, but she instilled in me a love for reading, especially enjoying poetry. Babes in the woods, Abou Ben Adhem etc.She taught us how to hold a book while reading.Sixth standard is a pretty long time ago, but it seems just like yesterday.
Mrs.CR was an excellent teacher too.She treated her students with respect and that is what is lacking in a lot of teachers today. Most teachers like students who are very interactive in class, but most of the shy and introverted kids just go through their school and colleges hoping somebody will unearth their talents and encourage them.
Mrs CR was one such teacher, showed us it was okay to make mistakes, especially when we were in her French class.
To teachers like mine and others like them all over the world,THANK YOU!!!
