Do you believe in making profit out of your talent? Do you own or plan to own classes? What skills do you have? S. Joshi replied. It is not necessary to make money out of talent. It is individual’s choice. If someone is a good teacher, then he or she should teach for free, that would be a great charity work. But it is also true that charity is not always possible. I do not own classes but my bother owns classes, where he teaches fine arts to people. He has a degree in fine arts. He is expert in drawing, painting, sketching and many other arts. His paintings are displayed in the exhibition many times. He also makes artistic rangoli. He got an award in the rangoli competition last year. This competition was on state level. I really appreciate his skill. One should make best use of ones skill. Varun replied. Who does not believe in making money out of talent? My brother-in-law sings nice and he is trained music teacher, so he takes classes of classical music. He started ten years back. Then he had only five students and he used to run his tutorials from home. Today his dance academy has more than 6o students and he owns a huge hall in Mumbai where he teaches classical music to children and even to adults. I really got inspired by him. As I am doing a job in an advertising agency, I am not planning to open a class. But if ever I thought of it, I will start teaching copyrighting. I have completed my MBA in same subject so I can teach that better. B. Subramanyam replied. I am a school teacher and I totally believe that one should make maximum use of his or her talent. I teach mathematics and science subjects to students from class I to class V. I enjoy my work a lot. Teaching is my passion. I wanted to be a teacher from my childhood. My family too encouraged me to take this profession. My teaching job gives me chance to communicate with children and educate them. I also believe in making money with the use of knowledge. I do not own a class but I conduct tuitions at home. I teach children at home but I try to charge minimal fee. I am also planning to participate in a social work program where we will spread awareness about education.
