What are the key factors that keep you connected with the education sector?

“Progressing younger generation and self in a beautiful way”

My passion for teaching, along with the beautiful work environment that cease to exist and provide me with the chance that I’ve got to dwell deep into the core area of my subject which I don’t think I could find in any of the careers, stick me to this noble profession. Moreover, nurturing young minds and preparing them to be responsible citizens are the major factors that anchored me in this career. After these many years when I find my students working for different corporate sectors and some follow my path to be a teacher, I think I’m successful as a teacher and this is how I share a beautiful connection with the education sector.

What do you see as St. Joseph College’s greatest strengths?

“Great leadership and enriched learner focus”

The primary strength that I think pertaining to our college is our principal Showrilu Reddy, who took all the pain of trying to establish the dignity, discipline, sovereignty and decency of the institution, provided with the administration process of the college. Later, every one of us walked on the way that she has paved and now we are one of the leading institutions in our state. The main asset according to me is maintaining the quality of education. We don’t let any of the students down pertaining to the current market scenario. We keep updating ourselves according to the changes in the market. Besides that, we prepare our students mentally for the upcoming changes that will happen in the future. Combining all the above aspects, I could say those are the strengths that make us stand unique when compared in par with the rest of the colleges.

Any suggestions you would like to give to the current youth?

“Learn more, achieve more”

All I want to suggest to the youth is not to dwell with the technology much by forfeiting the roots. That’s not at all suggestible. And to all young and aspiring individuals, I’d be suggesting to them to look for entrepreneurship which eventually would make them contribute to society even.
