台中洋碩美語 makes our lives valuable

很多學生覺得學校教的東西很無趣，在日常生活中也不會用到

但老師依舊深信教育的重要，為什麼?

你覺得老師所扮演的角色是什麼？

Abdul Mallik, a school teacher from Malappuram, India, swims across a river everyday to teach his students.
 

For the past twenty years, he has completed this journey time and time again. Why does he do this?

In his own words:

“If I go by bus, it takes me three hours to cover the 12-kilometer (7.5 miles) distance,” he told the station. “But swimming through the river is easier, faster and I reach school on time.”

After he crosses, he changes into a fresh pair of clothes and sets off to the school.

For Teacher’s Day in India, his students welcomed him with smiles and cards to show their appreciation.

Think about how far your own teacher will go for you.

在印度有一位老師，每天渡河去教書

他說：要是搭公車，要花三小時的時間，但游泳過河更快，也能準時

每次游過河後，他才更衣準備上班

教師節這天，他的學生笑著送他卡片以示感謝

從這篇新聞中，你可以想想老師為你做了多少？
