“They inspire you, they entertain you, and you end up learning a ton even when you don’t know it”
― Nicholas Sparks, Dear John
This is a famous quote written by Nicholas Sparks; in his book Dear John, which I personally think is very appropriate for a professor’s personality. I believe that a professor is a person who inspires us when we need it the most. They are the one who motivate us and direct us in the right path.
They make studies not a burden but fun. They entertain us, crack jokes and do various other activities to make their subject easier and more interesting which results in learning the subject without any difficulties.
There are various roles played by teachers in understanding a student’s needs. Some of them are learning about student’s interests, planning and organizing classroom activities, assessing the student’s performance, understanding the basic needs of students, encouraging them to improve, calling for students-parents meeting and discussing with them about the students performance or discipline, encouraging them to participate in extracurricular activities, etc.
In my last seventeen years of learning I have come across many teachers who have taught me various subjects and have given me the confidence to face the world. They have always been my support and have motivated me to do things of my interest.
As it is said, “Without inspiration the best powers of the mind remain dormant. There is a fuel in us which needs to be ignited with sparks.” this fuel is always ignited by professors/Teachers who teach us and motivate us.
I would like to narrate about a professor who is not just a professor but someone who can be a light to darkness, a friend, philosopher and a guide, All molded into one person.
My favorite Prof.Sandeep Gupta, A Professor and a Co-ordinator of Bachelor of Management Studies (BMS) in K.J.Somaiya College Of Arts And Commerce, Ghatkoper. A Master Of Commerce, Diploma In Business Finance and a Chartered Accountant, is the person whose personality totally reflects of an ideal professors.
He is a visiting faculty in SIES College, Sion and Jhunjhunwala College, Ghatkopar. Prof.Sandeep Gupta has been teaching subjects like Finance and Taxation. He has been teaching since last five years. He has not only excelled in his academics but also has excelled in making a huge space for himself in many students’ hearts.
According to him “The Best teacher teaches from the heart, not from the book”. He has always believed in the proverb “Knowledge Is Wealth”, and accordingly he has always tried to impart knowledge to his students not only limited to his subjects but also beyond it.
He has actively taken part in social activities and presently also tied up with Rotaract Club of Ghatkoper in Association with K.J.Somaiya College of Arts and Commerce BMS Section.
Prof.Sandeep Gupta plays an important role in organizing industrial visits for his students which helps a lot in gaining knowledge about the outer world. He has organized industrial visits to Silvassa, Jaipur, Rajasthan, Shimla and many more places.
He has a very positive attitude towards life and his students, the best thing about him is that he never has a ‘No’ for his students; he is always ready to help them at any point of time. He is a perfect match of a professor and a perfectionist.
He has been a best Professor and a great inspiration for many.
