As an upper-primary school teacher from Delhi, Bhupendra teaches Science and Mathematics and holds genuine curiosity and interest in the subjects himself. He also likes to read and engage in art and craft as a hobby. His preferred methods of teaching are through videos and images, group activities and making students practice regularly.

What motivated you to become a teacher?

I was a bright student myself. So, I used to help my friends in studying and this developed my interest in teaching. And above all this, a teacher should never stop learning as he creates a future through his teaching efforts.

What is your best memory so far as a teacher?

My best memory so far as a teacher was when we had to work on a model of a telescope and we organized an exhibition in which parents of students and local people had participated.

How were you introduced to Gurushala?

I was introduced to Gurushala by a member of the Pratham Education Foundation who were working with our school to introduce technology in education. My favorite section of Gurushala is the Course section and Content library as they help us to learn different new ways of teaching by using technology and activities. I have participated in many activities like competitions, webinars, seminars etc.

How has Gurushala helped you in your journey as a teacher?

Gurushala helps me very much as it has taught us to use technology during the teaching-learning process. During the pandemic period, it helped us to make videos, PPTs, tests, assignments etc. and made study more interesting during this period.

What according to you is a 21st Century Teacher?

A 21st Century teacher is a mentor for his students in every way. As a teacher, my motto is to never stop learning.

I also try to bring change in society by spreading knowledge and making students skillful and a good human as well.
