Lest I sound like I have given up on teaching Physics in school, I must hasten to add this.  How the teacher presents science in school has a direct effect on how the student views the subject later on.  This is true, I am sure, of other subjects as well, but is critical for science and math.  What matters is the teacher’s attitude and approach to learning and teaching.  Of course, at least part of this statement is motivated by self-preservation interests.  Regardless, I do think qualifications are not the only things that matter.  And if I have done my job well, at least some of my students may revisit Physics later in life and grapple with concepts that they thought they had understood!<br><br>

So, you think I have got it all figured out? You wish.  I am supposed to teach Class 11 Physics next year.  It is de ja vu all over again…..
