HCL CSC Week - Teach @ Office

CSC had come out with many valuable programs and had always tasted the success in each program with the untiring support and encouragement from my fellow HCLites. This time it’s all about another unique program, “Teach @ Office”. This program focuses on the contribution from you for a holistic development of Security Guards posted at HCL premises in a subtle way by equipping them with the right information, creating awareness, imparting skills and knowledge. For example, teaching them the spoken English and other soft skills etc. which will certainly enhance their personality, indeed personal value. Education enlightens the future. Whenever I see a candle I immediately recall my teachers who took pains to give me wisdom and knowledge. It’s very obvious that teachers are like candle, which consumes itself to give light for others. Former President of our country and a great educationalist Dr. Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan always quote that teachers are the best minds in the country. A teacher is not a person who gives a man a fish and feed him for a day; but teach him the how to fish and feed him for the life time. Now how great is to be teacher?

Here I would like to make a first call and invite volunteers to be part of this ‘great journey of enlightenment’. You would be expected to assist us for just 2 hrs in a week by teaching your our security guards. We know that the roots of the education are bitter, but the fruits are always sweet. It’s now time for us to share this to our fellow persons. Remember “The art of teaching is the art of assisting discovery.”

Rahul (Amb 6, Mob:9940688577 email: rahulganapathy_s@hcl.in ) is the program coordinator. You will hear more from him on the plan and execution.

Looking forward to you as a teacher.
