Teacher’s Day is a special occasion, celebrated to honour teachers for their guidance and help. It is a special day for the appreciation of teachers for their special contributions in a particular field area, or the community in general.
Teaching is one of the most dominant and prestigious jobs in the world. Teachers are known to structure the mind of youth by providing them knowledge and wisdom. Teachers impart virtues, fairness, integrity and morality in children and transform them into responsible citizens. So, almost every country in the world celebrates Teacher’s Day.
Many countries celebrate their Teachers’ Day on 5 October in conjunction with World Teachers’ Day, which was established by UNESCO in 1994.
