She was the first whom I started admiring a lot ever since I got to know that our names were the same. That little connection made me curious, and I soon started looking for more similarities between us. Her teaching skills were simple and followed the traditional method, yet I was deeply impressed by the way she dealt with her students. She was someone we could connect with, not just as a teacher but as a person who understood us.
She was the one who made me feel like becoming a teacher, being my true inspiration. I might not be as good as she was, but all I can see and feel is that my students love me a lot. I can sense this, and it makes me feel that perhaps I carry forward a part of her in my own teaching.
Unlike her, I may not have her grace and patience, but I feel I have at least a few of her traits. She taught me lessons beyond books — how to behave with others, how to remain as normal and humble as we can, and how not to carry the ego of being a teacher or a superior.
I don’t know where she is today or how she is doing, but I still remember her fondly. She remains unforgettable in my heart, and I often feel like meeting her once again.
