Teaching Lecturers

Teaching Lecturers

Sir,

Through observation I found out that lecturers must possess one vital element besides just being qualified — that is they should be Teachers i.e. possessing teaching ability. For one of the most frustrating things in the process of learning is when one's initial interest and aspiration are being pushed down the scale by a mere bad presentation. Is it not, after all, the prime object of lecturing to promote learning in which understanding and interest unfortunately both play a very significant role.

I hope that the Student Association of this University would look into students interest by considering this matter, so that attending lectures would be something more of interest rather than of necessity. And besides, napping with one hand under the chin, while the other holding to a pen I can assure you, is not very comfortable.
