Laboratory of Chemical Science

Since very long I have been posting about lady teachers of my school, but today after my maths teacher I am sharing my memories of Chemistry Lab Teacher Mr. Debasish Kasta.

He is Chemistry Lab Faculty in D.V. Girls, Chittaranjan. He’s born on 24^th Jan 1966. He is basically from Ghatsila. Ghatshila is a town in Purbi Singhbhum district in the state of Jharkhand, India.

Mr. Debasish Kasta

I remember that when we use to visit Chemistry lab for practical, most of the time “Kasta Sir” informed us about the lab’s techniques, instrumentation, protocols and how to properly cite resources. He also used to give us tips about organizing our lab notebooks, how to effectively create graphs and tables for lab reports. In our chemistry lab we were having First Aid box also. He always supervised us about Chemical hygiene and aware about common accidents, which often occur some of them are fire, chemical and thermal burns, cuts from broken glass tubing and chemical splash on face. He used to say “Stay alert and pay constant attention” to your own practical. He informed us about the consequences of every action before we performed it.

Today when I am recalling these memories I can also recall that most of us have always used practical in science to maintain our average score in final terms as well, while the importance was always around how good your practical notebook can look and how many marks you can score through viva, all these small and big tips in chemistry labs have somewhere somehow contributed towards our overall scoring capacity, while as kids we used to ignore these things, now after growing up and working in professional field I can realize how some extra work gets us recognition, just like the practical sessions during our school days.

Sharing Science- Learn,Engage,Be Inspired !!!!!

1  In my previous post I shared the memories of my Hindi teacher, now today I am recalling my memories of Mrs. Pragna Biswas: She is considered as one of the well versed and experienced Science teacher of my school. 

Mrs. Pragna Biswas

      She basically belongs to Adra, West Bengal. She did her graduation from the University of Burdwan. She is working with D.V. Girls Chittaranjan since 1997, her expertise in science has always helped many student like me in gaining small and big scientific views about our daily life. Even though her mother toung was Bangla she used to take our classes for Science in Hindi as per the CBSE guidelines, through this we always had a idea about her expertise in Hindi as well. 

    Even though she used to teach us science but whenever she used to draw some kind of diagram on board I always used to find her skills in drawing intriguing as well, her source of inspiration are legends like "Swami Vivekanand" and "Rabindra Nath Tagore".

As they say science changes your way of life, so to the words science actually changes our way of life, but it’s our teachers who provide us with quality education so that not only us but our generations coming have that impact.

Dedicating this to every person who has taught me science in minor or major ways, with their own style.

हिन्दी हमारी पहचान है।

Mrs. Asha Roy taught me Hindi Teacher when I was in 11^th standard, she is an expert of Hindi language. She basically is from Bihar (Bhagalpur District) India. She did her High Schooling from - D.V. Girls’ CRJ itself, batch of 1971. She did her college education from- S.M College, Bhagalpur, in 1975.

 

Mrs.Asha Roy Ma'am

 

Her own style of teaching different aspects of Hindi as a structured language was unique in itself. I can still recall that I actually was able to understand meaning of Mr. Harivansh Rai Bacchan’s poem “Madhushala” when she explained it in class.

Even though Hindi is one of the language which stands amongst the highest speaking language it’s one of the few language in the world which is most adaptable and contains words from almost every language. It also reflects one of the few excellent qualities of humans, we try to adjust ourselves as per the environment around us, so does Hindi, it accepts everyone, may be that’s one the reasons that now a days we don’t talk in Hindi rather common language of communication is “Hinglish” anyways for some of us it’s impossible to communicate in pure Hindi, may be that’s the beauty about this language.

Hindi is one of the language for most of us where our first teacher is our mother, and so is the case with me as well. But to achieve the professional excellence knowledge of this language, we all need a good teacher, today while recalling the memory of my high school Hindi teacher Mrs. Asha Roy, I would also like to recall memories of my Hindi Teachers who contributed towards enhancing my knowledge and skills in Hindi since my day one in school.

For instance Mrs. Indubala ma’am who taught me Hindi till 10^th  standard.

Closing this message with a special thanks to all my Hindi teachers who helped me by teaching such a beautiful language.
