Topic: ‘Salute to the teachers’ Hints: ● an excellent educator ● brightens a soul with its light ● teaches from the heart, not just from the book ● resourceful and dedicated ● hard-working and motivated Honourable Judges, teachers and friends, Good morning. My topic for the 'Interschool Elocution Competition' is 'Salute to the teachers.' Teacher's Day is a few days away and for the past 10 years, a teacher has been an important part of my life. Every teacher I came across has taught me something valuable, if not academics then something important about life. So this teacher's day I wish to salute the teachers' who have made me the person I am today. I am not able to say much about my primary school teachers but from what I see them doing with the students in their classes, I gather that they did the same for us then and that is they showered us with love, laughter and knowledge. From Std.5 onwards my memory is fairly clear and I remember most of my teachers and their contribution in my life in school and outside. All of them, I really mean it, have been excellent educators. They come prepared to class and can answer any question related to the lesson without referring to the textbook or notes. My school teachers teach from the heart, not just the textbook. The textbook is just a reference point. They were all resourceful and dedicated, many of them didn't take a single holiday throughout the year. Hardworking and motivated are the qualities they impart to every student in the school. Our school doesn't have a single student with less than 60%, yes, we are all first class students and our school has been recognised for this by the Education Minister. I won't be able to stop praising our teachers. So I'll end here with just a statement of gratitude to define our teachers. They are people who brighten a soul with its light. This Teacher's Day let's stand and salute our teachers. Thank you.
