A Teacher’s Dilemma

“It takes 20 years to build a

reputation and five minutes to

ruin it. If you think about that,

you'll do things differently.”

A Teacher’s Dilemma

Mr. Ramshankar was a Physics teacher in the old part of
Delhi. For more than 20 years, he had taught aspiring boys
and girls who wanted to be engineers the fine nuances of
the subject of Physics.

He loved his subject, and he knew how to talk about it. It
was only a matter of time before parents started
requesting him to take tuitions for their children after
school as well.

Now Mr. Ramshankar was a very upright and honest man.
He was not very comfortable with the idea of teaching
after school and taking the huge amounts of money being
offered to him without keeping the school informed of the
same.
