Best Teachers of the Year announced
More than 20 Armenian teachers have received certificates for Best Teacher of the Year, Best Principal of the Year and Best Educator of the Year in light of Teachers' Day.
RA Minister of Education and Science Armen Ashotyan handed the awards and expressed gratitude for their dedicated service.
"A remarkable amount of money has been spent on science and the results are unmatched. Of course, that is thanks to teachers who don't spare any efforts to educate our children," Ashotyan said.
Teacher of the middle school in Hovk village of Tavush province Seda Asiryan was one of the six recipients of the award for Best Teacher of the Year. She says each generation is different from the previous one.
"It is a little difficult to work with the children of the new generation, but at the same time it is more interesting. They are different with their mindset and attitude toward problems in life," Seda Asiryan said.
According to principal of the middle school in Artamet village of Armavir province Artak Gyozalyan, there is a lack of male teachers and that has a negative impact on today's generation.
"Children taught by a male teacher differ from others. The lack of male teachers particularly has a negative impact on male students. There has to be some balance. At the same time, I can't underestimate the male students because there are many good students," recipient of the award for Best Principal of the Year Artak Gyozalyan.
Teachers' Day will be celebrated at the National Academic Theater of Opera and Ballet on October 5 and will be attended by Prime Minister Tigran Sargsyan.
