Get
up get up, my mother was waking me up for the school.After massaging my sleepy
eyes and yawning, I woke up and get ready to go to school. I went to a private
school in Hyderabad. Just like other children I also cried on the first day but
my brothers were in the same school so they tried to calm me. After some days I
settled in the school and started learning. I was a bright student and keen to studies.
“Excuse me, teacher! Today you are supposed to conduct the test.” I use to
remind teachers about tests. From the childhood, I was that student of the
class who was disliked by all the backbenchers as I inform teachers about those
who hasn’t done their homework or who are making noises. That’s the reason I
was favourite student of all my teachers and they never scold me. There were
many activities in which I always participate like: Sports competition, poem
competition and naat competition. The only thing in which I wasn’t good at is drawing.
That was never my cup of tea.Every single thing in that school was proper. It
was a basket of discipline. The teachers were always present in the class
before the students enter the class after assembly. In the recess students make
queues to buy snacks from canteen. As it was a co education and teachers give
equal attention to every student, the confidence in students was always building up.
After 5th standard my life changed as I left that school due to some
reasons and went to a government school.
When
I entered the school I was shocked to see the scenario of that gov’t school. It
was like another world for me. There was a huge ground without any shades.
After assembly when we went to our class, there was no teacher present in the class.
Students were roaming here and there. After 2 hours one teacher came and sat on
the chair. She just introduced herself and about the subject which she will be going
to teach. After that she was just relaxing and the whole class was busy in
gossiping. After some days our English teacher attended the class she asked us
to read the lesson and then she just said tomorrow we will do the exercise of
the lesson. When I asked her to elaborate the lesson as reading wasn’t enough
for us to understand, she scolded me and said me to sit down. “A person is known
by the company he keeps.” This proverb is true. It was difficult for me to make
friends in that environment but fortunately I met a girl who was opposite of my
nature. She was jolly and entertainer of the class. I started changing myself
according to the school and my friend, we started bunking classes together,
always irritate teachers and even standing outside the class as a punishment we
use to do fun. There were separate portions of boys and girls. The recess
timings were also different. Whenever recess time of boys occur the teachers
use to close the doors of girls classes so the boys and girls couldn’t look at
each other. That is the negativity which the system of that school was putting
in student’s minds. Just because of this kind of attitude and rules we all
become negative and lost our confidence.
That
one main thing which I lost in that journey was my interest to studies. From
the first bencher I become the last bencher. Gov’t schools should hire young
teachers as the old ones are not good at teaching. Their ideas and thoughts
aren’t effective to the students. The youth have new ideas about how to teach
the students and what to teach. They should give positive learnings to the
students so they can be confident in their lives. Teachers should give
attention to every student no matter how many there are.
