The Perfect Guru

April 8, 2011 2 Comments

Mentors and gurus,we all need them to shine.But picking the right teacher is really very important.The Indian Cricket Team has not always been fortunate in its coaches.To have followed their history, is to know how a bad teacher can squish the best talent in the world.Teaching is oh so much more than imparting knowledge,instilling discipline and creating perfection.In fact, trying to mould every student to fit some abstract idea of “perfect” is probably the best recipe for killing talent.I hope this article from the the ‘Mumbai Mirror’ helps you pick a good mentor.The red ink is all mine.
