Kudos to all dedicated teachers

FROM time immemorial, great leaders were considered teachers. Heads of families were “teachers”, tasked with bringing up the next generation to respect the law, others and to live a peaceful co-­existence. So we can see the ­“teacher” in CEOs, heads of organisations and family members in various spheres of our lives.

All children are educable but there are limits to which a child can achieve. Some are brilliant while others are slow learners. Where we have specialist teachers, individuals can develop further although they may be handicapped in certain ways.
