When I was growing up as a young boy, especially in my high school, I was more like a below-average student. On top of that, I was also not as energetic as the other boys of my age. So, it is fair to assume that I wasn’t really enjoying going to school as much as I should have. But, then came a teacher in my life who I would never forget. His name was Mr Mukit Kumar. Mr Kumar, teaching Geography, wasn’t like other teachers of my high school because he seemed more friendly with his students than his colleagues.
Anyway, I still vividly remember the first day when he asked the names of each and every student of his class. Then, he asked all of his students one by one to tell a positive thing about themselves. But, when it was my turn to answer that awkward question, I simply put my head down and kept quiet because I just didn’t know what to say. I guess, he understood my situation, so he told the whole class in my defence that I had a lot of positive things to tell about me, but I just didn’t know where to start. After saying that, Mr Kumar looked at me with a smiling face as if to tell me that I was just fine. And, that was when I felt for the first time that I could be just as good as other students.
Anyway, Mr Kumar has influenced my academic life immensely with his very easy and laidback approach to teaching. Besides, he always used to remind his students, but especially me, not to think in the terms what we couldn’t do, but what we could do, even if it was a very little thing. Finally, it was because of his continuous encouragement to act and feel strong, no matter how physically weak I really was, that I developed very high self-esteem in me. And, needless to say, it was that high self-esteem in me that helped me excelled academically at a later time.
