“Technology will never replace great teachers, but in the hands of great teachers, it’s transformational.” – George Couros
The year 2020 brought schools, colleges, and the whole education system to a standstill. Teachers were worried about the learning & future of their students. However, when all of his colleagues were busy worrying, he decided to go solution-oriented and started looking for ways of teaching. Here is the story of a super enthusiastic and optimistic teacher, Rajat Raheja. Rajat Sir is an extremely qualified and talented post-graduate teacher. He holds numerous educational degrees, Bachelor’s of Science and B.Ed to name a few. He hails from Kharia, Sirsa, and considers teaching as an integral part of his life. He holds expertise in the subjects like Industrial Chemistry & Organic Chemistry. Due to his keen interest in both subjects, he decided to take up a permanent career as a Chemistry teacher. Now, he teaches as a Chemistry teacher at VM National Senior Secondary School, Sirsa for the past two years.
While the struggle of finding the right online teaching app was on, he tried using various platforms like zoom, google meet, Microsoft teams, etc. However, nothing seemed up to the mark. Then he came across Teachmint, he decided to install the application and give it a try. He has been using Teachmint for almost a year now and he is all the praises of the app, he says-

The day is not far when the schools or coaching institutes would permanently run online”, added Rajat Sir. He loves the experience of online teaching and said that he would like to continue teaching in the hybrid model as there are uncountable benefits of the same. He also mentioned that online education is a great opportunity for the students to outshine as online teaching helps them save time and be more productive. “Adopting online teaching is the greatest thing that has happened to the people of the 21st century.
