Before I became a Teacher

Before I became a Teacher never I knew

That sleeping in the class disturbs
The teaching of the teacher.
That talking in the class makes
The teacher shouting in the class.
That not scribbling in the class augments
The degrading of the student.
That correcting the answer scripts is tougher
Than attempting all the questions.
That questioning the answers is harder
Than answering the questions.
That coming late for the class is worse
Than not attending the class.
That absenting in the class is worse
Than not joining for the course.
That photocopying is the greatest insult
That a teacher can ever bear.
That helping a fellow student learn is
The second greatest insult to a teacher.
That teaching is the noblest profession
When all your students become teachers.
