New Delhi (Agency): In a significant recognition, Netai Chandra Dey, a dedicated teacher from Ramakrishna Mission School in Narottam Nagar, Tirap district, Arunachal Pradesh, has been selected for the prestigious National Teacher’s Award for 2023. This award shines a spotlight on Dey’s remarkable contributions to the education sector and his significant impact on the lives of his students.
Dey’s journey in the field of education spans over three decades. Throughout this time, he has shown a steadfast commitment to nurturing young minds. “As an innovative and compassionate teacher, he has inspired countless students to achieve their potential and excel academically,” said an official from the school.
His approach to teaching is not solely focused on academic excellence but also aims at holistic development. He has gained respect and admiration from students, parents, and colleagues for his ability to create engaging and interactive learning environments.
Beyond the classroom, Dey’s dedication extends to community involvement. He has actively participated in various educational initiatives and community outreach programs. His efforts in this arena further demonstrate his commitment to fostering a love for learning among students. According to the same official, his educational methods have led to consistently outstanding results: his students frequently achieve top ranks in national and regional examinations.
This year, another teacher from the same school, Debasish Roy, a post-graduate teacher of English, has been selected for the State Teacher Award. It appears that the institution has a history of educational excellence, as three teachers have previously received the state award, and another three, including Dey, have been honored with the national award for best teacher.
Chief Minister Pema Khandu, in his Independence Day speech this year, announced a gold medal for Ramakrishna Mission, adding another feather in the cap for the educational institution.
The National Teacher’s Award serves not only as an acknowledgment of Dey’s incredible achievements but also as an inspiration for educators across the country. His story is a testament to the transformative power of dedicated teaching and mentorship, and it brings to light the critical role that educators play in shaping the future.
