Teachers are always required. They are the ones who make civilisations grow or vanish. Teachers teach humans to live life with meaning. But, there are those who have been willing to join teaching as a career but miss to understand a few fundamentals that get them jobs. After all, it is an occupation, not a trade to barter money and profits. Teacherr, EdChatIND and Osmania University organised a session for aspiring individuals who want to join Teaching as their career.

Parveen Sharma made this presentation in the live session. The Youtube Live is shared below to take you straight to what it means to be an Effective Teacher through Communication. The sessions had a detailed presentation and explanation on How to Enhance Communication Skills and Strengthen the Claim on a Teaching job.
