Teachers are the heart and soul of every educational institution. They’re the beacon of light that illuminates the world by nurturing and inspiring hundreds and even thousands of impressionable minds to pursue their dreams and visions.
Pretty much every profession out there began with an individual who was once nurtured by a good and dedicated teacher, driving them to excel in their respective field. This goes to show the importance of teachers and their contribution to the growth and development of the society.
The duty of a teacher is not just within the confines of a classroom but extends beyond the walls of the Campus as well. At IICP, we are proud to have several outstanding role models amongst the teaching staff who goes above and beyond for their students. Aside from ensuring their students’ academic development is on track, there are those rare gems of a teacher who takes the time to mentor the students under their care and build lasting relationships even after the student’s had graduated.
In conjunction with Teacher’s Day, INTIMA led the initiative to give fellow INTIans the opportunity to express their heartfelt gratitude to their beloved lecturers. There was an overwhelming response from the students, who were keen to convey their appreciation through thoughtful handwritten notes. Others decided to take a picture and submit an entry for the “From the Bottom of My Heart Contest”, openly declaring their favorite lecturer accompanied with a note to the respective lecturer. It was certainly heartwarming for the lecturers, with some receiving tons of notes and loving messages from their students. As for the students, they were happy to be able to give their lecturers due recognition for their care and guidance.
