[@gulnoza2211]

thanks for this video. Now I am 17 y.o and a teacher . I have been working since I was 16. I am young enough but at the same time I have responsibility for my students ranging from 15 tom 43 . Pray for me. I hope i will be successful ever.

[@georginabravo4508]

The way to become a better teacher is to always be a student. You always should be learning something new, so it will be easy for you to put yourself in your student’s shoes. A new language, read music, play an instrument, learn to knit, or paint, etc.

[@voldyx]

Wow! Absolutely Brilliant!! The world needs more teachers like him. If he can inspire so much in a single ted talk, imagine what teachers like him can accomplish during a semester.

[@loredanateacher-nd9sx]

What a great teacher! And man

[@yakinilua]

Thanks, I'm a student of language. I wanna start "teaching" in a classroom soon. This video helped me to understand better how become a great teacher.

[@DR.-NABIL]

Next September i'll meet my first class as a philosophy professor. Thank you TEDx. thank you Mr.Mariappan Jawaharlal.

[@maggiedunbar5947]

As a retired teacher I found your ideas excellent

[@sallywhyte8233]

This was an inspiring and incredible talk. For someone about to teach abroad for the first time this really helped me feel more confidence in teaching and connecting with the students. Thank you Mariappan !

[@RAJKUMAR__2005]

Mass speech thala 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@BrickMuffin]

Thank you for your teachings and guidance during my time as an undergraduate Dr. Jawa. The world needs more professors like you.

[@GenomicsLab]

[@mansapande]

I wish all the teachers in the world understood this mantra!

What I learned from this speech is "What do u think " it's wonderful it's applicable in real life also for ur own childern in life situvations making the questioned one to think about their questions makes them to become more intelligent and own problem solver.

[@kashemvai5025]

YES, that was my question for years, "WHY AM I LEARNIGN THIS?" In every class that I took in college, teachers would walk in, do some maths on board, walk out and we were supposed to write them down on papers, but never told why I needed to learn this thing. I hate traditional teaching method in classroom, it never taught me anything. Honestly, duing my entire undergrad, I learnt almost 95% things from internet and youtube alone, my professors were very unhelpful in making me learn things. And, also I hate "teachers" who were never supposed to be teachers. I know countless people, who became a teacher after their "PhD" only because they were struggling to get a job after they graduated, they were never meant to teach.

[@RebelPrapti]

You are definitely one of the favourite teacher of nearly all students whom you have taught ever... And now you are mine too

[@ArvindAmin]

Excellent talk! So simple, yet very powerful learning for teachers. I was expecting teaching 'Why'. Perhaps, that was implicit in the talk. There should be a Nobel prize for teachers. He should get one!

[@bencyber8595]

Arvind Amin yes , a noble price winner , what is teaching , it consists of 10 vol , each volume may be around 700 pages , tnx

[@imranpathan-hu6zu]

This man deserves Nobel prize 🏆

[@sweetapple1479]

Tomorow is my first day teaching at school, so thank you for this video. It's great! 💓

[@renukaprathaban8272]

My teacher has been very practical down to earth and makes even difficult topics easy

[@thilakkumar008]

absolutely marvelous.

[@sachinrajbhar1640]

really seen such SAMAJH🤯🤯 of Teaching ... Hats off to tedx and Jawaharlal Sir !!!

[@shameemazaira595]

This is much powerful to change all the perspectives about teaching and learning experience 😊

[@sahissu]

Thank you professor!

[@ashavarma5584]

Brilliant! Outstanding! Thank you sir, for that eyeopener. Thoroughly enjoyed your talk! You have put it so simply and so clearly. As a teacher trainer at university, this is just what I try to teach my trainees of English. Teaching is not equal to learning. One of the first questions we ask is, 'So you taught the lesson, but did they learn???' Moreover, we need a facilitator in class, not a lecturer.

[@ganeshvinayagam9021]

I am, as a teacher, appreciate. Whatever you said is true. The final one “ What do you think “ is real good technic👌

[@mayankrajprajapat8542]

UNEXPECTED ...WOW. he is realy an OUTSTANDING Professor .

[@beanhwak]

I fully agree with you. You are very clear with the message if you can explain in simple terms then you teach well. So many skills have to be applied with great commitment in a lesson and this is only possible with a deep understanding of subject matter.

[@balajic3823]

WONDERFUL Lecture! Almost all the school teachers in India should watch this video!!

[@ulukbekzhumaliev2588]

Not only in India, but also in Kyrgyzstan.

[@amgreacts6533]

The fundamental ways of teaching are well explained and demonstrated in this marvellous tedx talk .

[@tthtlc]

Not in school anymore, even my boss (in corporate world) is also telling me don't reinvent the wheel. When he don't understand anything, it is easy for him to say that. And then when you worked hard and finally reinvented the wheel, he will say your work is not appreciated, many others have done it before.

[@tharadas5107]

Thank you for sharing this wonderful knowledge of how a teacher should be & for becoming a better Teacher Dr.Jawa sir!!🙏❤️

[@kezianoble2817]

Thank you TED, I love my profession as a teacher but somehow i have been finding it difficult to really make a change

[@mariashielacalimbas1649]

I hope I can become a better teacher too. I will heed the tips and advices. Pray for me. 🙇

[@tthtlc]

My nuclear physics teacher, and so many other physics teacher in NUS (Singapore) is horribly sucks. Till today I still keep his notes, and every time I opened the notes, I just cannot stop feeling my wasted youth by all the physics teacher. One outstanding one is TTChia and he motivates us through his charisma.
