EXPERIENCE AS A TEACHER IN THE FIRST 3 WEEKS

Its 3 weeks now since I have started taking Classes at TIME..

First Day, 12th of May, I took a class in Jayanagar. I reached the centre at 5.55 & my class was suppose to start at 6. I was literally tensed. I really wanted to deliver the best. Students should not only gain knowledge on Simple Equations, but also CAT in totality. I very well know, every batch is a mix of some bright Engineers & some not to be blammed commerce, MBBS, BDS, BVsc Students. I should ensure all these guys understand.

Class Started & I went on with the intro & ensured I completed all the sums in 1.45 minutes..The next 15 minutes I gave some general gyan on CAT.

This is the strategy I have been following for the last 3 weeks.

Last week, I couldn't take the 1st mock. Reasons....My class which was about to get over by 1.30 went till 1.50 & then I left for lunch & by the time the Lunch got over it was 2.40..Also I got an urgent call from my native..So couldnt give the Mock CAT..So 19 more to go..Feeling Nostalgic over this process..Request you friends to wish me all the Best....

FIGHTER WINS THE THRILLER

Ok..Sorry for not pronouncing the arguments & Verdict of the case for a long time...

May 1-10th:

Judge (Unkhil):- Ok, the proceedings can start now....

Fighter (Petitioner) : My Lord, as you are aware about the recent stay Order..

Father (Opposition) : Objection my lord, Mr.Fighter is speaking things which are irrelevant to the case...

Judge: Objection Over ruled..Lets listen to what the Fighter has to say, then we will see whether its relevant or not..

Fighter: Thank You my Lord, As I said there is a stay Order which has thrashed all my dreams & ambitions of getting into an IIM..Now this is something which is beyond my control or for that matter anybody's control..Its an injustice as far as my results are concerned & now I request you my lord to give me one more chance, just one more chance to fulfill my dreams....

Father: This is ridiculous my lord, who asked Mr.Fighter to first of all claim an OBC reservation.Had he met the merit requirement, he would have converted it this year only..He is of an inferior quality & now he wants one more year to be wasted in this whole drama..

Fighter: My Lord, I accept it was a mistake to claim the reservation (though officially Iam eligible to). But between me & a 99.68%iler , it was a matter of 3 questions.Now I request you my lord to please consider my request generously. I had almost converted my IIMA call & fate has decided something else & Iam standing in front of you haplessly. Remeber my lord, when the IIMA call list was out,the father too shed tears as he was exalted about the hardwork being paid off......

(Judge Looks at the Father..Father just bends his head...)

One more point I wanted to make out..Remember my collegue, who jilted me by complaining to the VP & HR about my CAT preps. I came to know that he had been awake restlessly on 8th may till 1 AM & was repeatedly telling one of my other collegues that SC shouldnt approve the OBC reservation as me getting into IIM will be a national waste.

I really want to prove something now...

Father: Assume that the request is genuine also. What about the family?. Remember last time, because of Mr.Fighter, how many weddings we would have missed, how many days I had simply rejected my wife's request to take her out on a Sunday (Courtesy: Mock CATS)..How many days I had refused to play with my daughter..If we allow this Fighter, the same thing gonna happen this year too..

Fighter: My Lord, this year its just 5 months left & the first person to request me to write CAT 07 is my wife, followed by the request from my Dad (Remember the scene last year, it was entirely reverse)..As far as the preps are concerned, I needn't have to slog hard as now I have an offer from TIME to take classes in weekends(QA &DI)..so this will take care & I neednt have to spend time...

My Lord, falling down is easy, but getting up & fighting again is difficult..Now I have got up..I require Your's as well as the Father's support..PLEASEEEEEEEEEEE.....

JUDGE: OK...After hearing the case, its time for me to pass the Judgement..

The Father's concerns are genuine, at the same time the Fighter's plea is extremely pleasing. For any person in life attitude is important. Iam astounded by his attitude. His arguments are also logical & he has contigency plans also set ready for the preps..

So Iam allowing the FIGHTER to appear for CAT 2007 & he should ensure the father's responsibilities are also met properly...

Fighter: Will definetely do so Sir...(With a Smile)

Judge: The court can disperse...

Fighter Jumps....Father gives an envious look & congratulates....

Finally gearing up for CAT 2007
