Wish you and your team a very happy and prosperous New Year 2016.
TEARS OF JOY tells that life is not a bed of roses. If one crosses the
thorns,s bearing all pains, the final result will be sweet .Here is a mango
tree which is born when someone threw a seed carelessly. This tree is not
lucky to be nurtured by anyone, but grows witnessing all difficulties. Still
its fruits too are sweet and juicy. A lesson we learn from nature.
I hope to see this in prints in WE at the earliest, so that the readers will
overcome the disappointments due to some hurdles from the beginning of
2016.
I am proud and thankful to you for publishing my poem is There A
Choice in May 2015 second issue.

profession when they accomplish 100% result for the schools. Ultimately
all three are under high pressure.
Every year, the period from December to March is crucial, but this year to
add oil to fire the long and unforeseen holidays due to recent rains have
thrown the planned schedule for this academic year out of gear.
Academicians are pulling their hair to find ways and means to tackle the
situation. We are under triple A that leads to triple S, that is, anxiety,
approach and attitude lead to stress, strain and success.
Giving excuses and panicking are not the remedy at this juncture. To me it
is not the students who should be more responsible, but parents and
teachers should take utmost care in handling the students. A few
suggestions for parents are listed below.
Dos
First and foremost read the mind of your child. He or she is in the
adolescent age going through physical and emotional changes. Now
the fear of exams and peer pressure make him / her even more
restless.
Try to understand the mental trauma of the child.
Speak softly and use encouraging words.
Try to spend as much quality time as possible with your child when at
home.
Give your child healthy food and ensure that he/she doesnt fall ill.
Keep awake at night till your child retires to bed. He/she will realise
your concern.
Make the environment at home conducive for learning.
Advise your child suitably that he/she could read late hours now but
not on the day prior to the exam.
Donts
Accusing of wasting time and not being responsible in the days gone
by will only make the child panic.
effect.
Constantly speaking about scoring high percentage will damage the
confidence of the child.
Teachers play the next important role in this context. You may ask
Why. Teachers are responsible for the success of the students and
the reputation of the institution. Teachers are always over stressed and
this time the stress is beyond limits.
Completion of syllabus, correction of note books and answer papers,
setting question papers, coaching remedial students, conducting
special classes are a few of their responsibilities and the list is endless.
Being a teacher myself for about thirty five years, I too had faced
many difficult situations like this to tackle. As a member of the
can understand.
Give sufficient time to complete the assigned task.
Return the notebooks after correction at the earliest.
Keep motivating and encouraging your students.
Remember to spend a few minutes with your students to discuss
general topics, have short light-hearted conversations besides core
same day.
Revisit your schedule and tally the completion of tasks as opposed to
Do not forget that your parents and teachers are your well-wishers and
your guides.
The triple A as I mentioned in the beginning, stands for
1. Anxiety Anxiety of parents and teachers that will only make the
students more STRESSFUL.
2. Approach A lot depends upon the approach towards the problem.
As elders, if we ourselves are confused and give too many
instructions, it will be STRENUOUS for the children.
3. Attitude The trust and the positive attitude you have towards your
childs performance will lead him/her to be SUCCESSFUL.
The role of parents and teachers plays a key role in helping the
students towards a smooth sailing. Be considerate to them, they
are not machines that can run for twenty four hours in three shifts school, tuition and homework.

Over-anxiety leads to stress
