Introduction

Hi   Hearty Welcome to My Blog!
I am Avtar, pursuing Graduate Diploma in Tertiary Education at Otago Polytechnic. I am from India.My home town is Jalandhar in Punjab. Punjab is known all over the world because people from Punjab migrated to different countries of the world. The climate and geographical conditions are suitable for the cultivation of food crops and that is why it is known as bread basket of India.
I taught Economics, Geography and Environmental Education at St. Mary's Convent School . It is a catholic school which has a developed infrastructure.Therefore, it was quite helpful to improve my teaching and use of  digital techniques in learning process.
I have completed Master's in Economics, and Bachelor of Education from Guru Nanak Dev University, Amritsar. Although I am familiar with the modern trends in education yet I feel a lot is left to learn. So I joined G.D.T.E. which will enable me to learn , understand and adapt with the changing trends in the field of education at world level.
This is my room at home in India.
Here I spent most of my life.
I miss it!!!!!!

Farewell!!! to my outgoing dear students after completing year
10. I always believe that a teacher should relate himself to the
students to encourage them to express themselves.
