Scene
of Arun’s room, his sister Tanya is sitting on the cot and having
spread many books on the bed is shown to be busy studying. Arun is
seen watching a TV program and Tanya tells him to reduce volume so
that she can study properly. On that good brother quickly put off the
TV and sits looking to the ceiling. In the meantime, the door slowly
opens and Seema enters.
“Oh,
hello Seema Tanya almost shouts and looking to her brother eyeing to
Seema says in prankish tone, “Here comes your student”! Throwing
her eyebrows and twisting cheeks, she again concentrates in her
studies.
Seema
slowly approaches Arun, keeps her books on a stool and stands in
front of Arun. Arun tells her to sit next to Tanya and suggests that
Seema can tell him what she knows rather than him telling!
This
perplexes Seema but Tanya comes to her help and tells her, “That
means Seema, my brother will learn from you in stead of you learning
from him”!
This
arrangement confuses her and she blows her eyes and looks baffled.
Looks to Arun, Arun smilingly tells her that he had discussed her
problem with his friends and they suggested this method to build
self-confidence in you.
He
further said, “Seema please do not bother how you explain the
subject, even if you make mistakes, never mind, because since you are
a student you are expected to make mistakes, to err is human but to
err is the right of all students! Actually, that is why they are
called students! And so just start teaching me”! On hearing this
and understanding that this is just an experiment of Arun she shyly
accepts and lifts the book, Tanya beams and now she joins the
experiment. She quickly turns to her brother’s side and declares
that Seema is now having two earnest pupils!
“We
know Seema, you know the subject and so go ahead, make any mistake
but I am sure you will not make any mistake and for that the simple
method is just blurt out the very first thoughts those come to you.
The
atmosphere is full of friendliness, that helps Seema in summoning up
her courage, and she softly continues. Tanya was her friend and she
knew Arun as a good neighbor all these things help her in building up
confidence.
The
first lesson was done and that was done without any mistakes. Seema
realizes that her doubts about her ability to learn were very ill
founded. That gave her tremendous relief and she became closer to
Arun. Her way of demeanor with Arun changed. Seema admits to her
friend Tanya that she liked this new method of learning by teaching.
After
that session, successfully completed Arun explains to Seema that
learning is an art and when she picks up that art any subject, she
can learn even without any guidance because the real teacher is
always present within all of us. Seema looks very pleased on that
note and she thanks her friend Tanya for the moral support she gave
to her and admits that henceforth she can do her studies without
fear. This Arun appreciates.
