At the end of the day,Mrs Sushila Tyagi,our Hindi(印地语)and Sanskrit teacher,walked in and told us that the inspector had come and quietly observed the class from the back door.He had also left an adverse remark!That was sad for us.Would we now be punished for having failed our teachers?There were no answers from Mrs Tyagi.Instead,she wrote the Hindi word “dukh” on the blackboard.And then she did something I have never seen a teacher do in my entire school life.She apologized.
“I am sorry for having taught you something wrong,” she said.“There should be dots between the letters ‘du’ and ‘kh’.I hope you will not make this mistake in future.The inspector told me this in the staffroom and I realized that I used to miss out the dots as I wrote fast.”
That admission had a significant effect on me.If our teacher can say sorry to us when she is wrong then why can’t we?This incident helped me get rid of two common vices(恶习)— ego(自负)and dishonesty.
Twenty-three years passed.I had to let my teacher know what that lesson meant to me.I recently located Mrs Sushila Tyagi using the Internet.She was still a teacher and living in Ghaziabad with her family.I went to meet her with my husband.
She smiled when she heard my story of how her small,decades-old apology had transformed me for good.“It is tough being a teacher,” she said,“But every once in a while,when an old student comes along and tells us that we did something right,it makes up for everything else.”
