DivyaTeachers are the guiding light of our life. As the whole world celebrates Teacher’s Day on September 5 by wishing their teachers, I revisit my childhood and wish my parents. Parents are those who shape our value system in our formative years. Parents are our first teachers. Do you agree? Know the importance of teachers – how they can make a child’s life better with just small guidance.
Teaching is the noblest of all professions. It starts right from the childhood days when parents start inculcating values in their child. Parents help children to discover their full potential by engaging with their mind. Parents harness the powers and steer the child’s brain so that they learn in a better way.
Indeed, our parents are the best teachers who help us to explore the path and show us our strengths that eventually lead to wisdom and truth. Importance of teachers – they can see the bright spark in children long before children see in themselves.
Importance of teachers and parents

- Teachers and parents prepare us for the challenges of life.
- They teach us to confront the problems and walk through the solutions.
- They help us to live life unapologetically and to the fullest.
- Parents and teachers teach the most valuable work ethics that are needed to learn for the lifetime.
- Teachers are not biased towards any student, they are fair enough and impartial. Children need to understand this and cooperate with them.
- They make us self-confident by making us capable enough to manage ourselves. They teach us to balance work and life.
- Teachers and parents introduce us to the books that work as a springboard for the mind.
- The best teacher does not only provides data but ensures that you question and explore what helps you to shine.

Parents need to be role models for their children. I always say that children follow our examples instead of our advice. Our actions should speak volumes which our children can follow. They need to know the importance of teachers.
