Teacher's Diary of LALIT MOHAN SHUKLA

Introduction:Teacher's Diary is very important document in school. During my long career of teaching career i was forced to write teachers diary which is for me a boring task, because of writing every thing you taught to present in writing. Whenever I match my class teaching with the diary, it is always a mismatch affairs.                              ..      ....     It is always a vibrant life as a teacher simply because of children with innocence. I have decided to write out of box diary of my teaching career.                    When I finished my M.Phil degree in Ancient Indian History, culture and Archaeology, i was a young man of 26 years, willing to go for college education and was aspired to be famous Archaeologist. Unfortunately in India state and central government are in full control with their state departments. Whenever I read newspaper  advertisements regarding vacancy to work as archaeologist experience requirements were their. It is great question before me as how unemployed person can get experience.I applied to the post of Assistant professor in contingency basis .Government re advertised  the post saying M.Phil/Ph.d candidates were not available and Plain M.A can apply. Since I had a M.Phil degree I was fully confident to be selected. But to my surprise I was not selected this time also.bThis was the live example as how government.plays with merit.I was also selected in written examination of assistant professor.But here  due tovery poor marks given in interview ,put me last in merit list.I was surprised here also once the topper of university can be.rejected in such a way.

 Parents were getting weak due to age related problems and any how i have to search job. Some one advised me to join school as school teacher as school jobs were in plenty. So had to join  bachelor of education course. B. Ed college was 20 km away from my home. Virtually due to weak financial conditions, I have to arrange rupee 20 regularly. Sometimes,i have to cover 40 km either way regularly by walk.I have to work part time to meet expanses. Actul life time trouble come when i have to deposit 1500 hundred rupees as fees and father was a patient of epilepsy which requires greater attention. In the cross road, I was standings pondering great problem of fees. Suddenly One gentleman came to me who want deriver for his car. He wants it and i gave him consent to work for his driver provided he will pay me 1500 for examination fees.After service, he gave me 1500 rupees and i could fill my examination form.                 ...... My Background :My father was a Forest Officer and was a science graduate from Nagpur university. He was a son of wealthy former with four brothers and single sister.He was a fine administrator and lover of Environment.My childhood was really remarkable one.Since I was a only son of my  family, I was most loved ones of my two lovely sisters.My Father loved me too much but never express his love.But when I got ill ,his care show his level of affection.Mother was simple but hardworking lady.She loved me too much.She takes every care of my food. Sometimes ,she over feed me. Because of her care  I was grown as handsome young man with height of six feet and three inches.Being a daughter of Retired principal, She took evey care of my studies. She used to wake up early in the morning near about 3:30 and prepare tea for me.She instruct me to read some difficult topics .She was a strong beliver  of Hindu Mythology. She says early mornings 4 to 6 is a brahma Mahurat (God's time) and when we studies during this time god help us to learn.When my mother get engage in some work ,I take naps occasionally. Any how I was not a good student but my younger sister used to study honestly. I still remember the places where we used to live with him in forest.Beautiful benglow surrounded with lust green hill and small river flows from  vaccinity of our house.In the forest region where no good teachers are available my father tried to do every possible arrangement of our studies. Two news papers one of Hindi and Other of English language comes to us by buse from District Head quater.Radio is also available to us for learning news and entertainment.                               My father being son of farmer and forest officer,was very much expert in agriculture and horticultural. He used to grow grains in five acre compound. Variety of fruits such as Papya,banana,custurd apple,were grown in our compound. Their was no availability of  water in the bunglow. So with the help of skin of tectona tree,water was brought to compound for irrigation of grain ,fruits trees and lovely garden.He purchased Cow to feed us with fresh milk.I think my father has brought heaven for us in that lonely forest area.One day He decided  to teach and test my knowledge of mathmatic.I still remember this horrible day when  I could not solve single  problem. His anger reached to maximum. My younger sister solved all the problems.He started beating me while teaching. A person like me who used  to make drama of studies in early mornings, my reality came to surface.Mother tried to save me and younger sister by signal try to give hint to me but they were of no use.     .. From that day,father decided to shift family to district head quarters for our studies  and  leave mother with us.Great fear of mathematics, still haunted me..
