She watches over him, talks to him, shows him and tells him about different new things. A teacher plays a very important role in molding a child's personality. Apart from bookish knowledge, there are far more important things that a teacher is responsible for in a student's life.

A teacher is, to a great extent, accountable for the thought process of the future generations of the society. The quotes given below pay a tribute to the wonderful teachers that have played a very important role in making us what we are today.
