Teachers should be replaced with online classes. Alright! So here we are with yet again a really straightforward topic with nothing really debatable about it, but since we are born with a tendency for complicating and indicating the simplest of things so I guess I would have to spend four valuable minutes here trying to prove moon shines at night and sun during day … ah! A good example would be of our dear national cricket team who never wins without giving prior miniature heart attacks to everybody glued to the screen. Similarly, motion stands so valid and solid that I am baffled at the mere sight of such learned and able people who are going on and on and on against the topic arguing merely for the sake of arguing. God help thisnation. Alright, Aristotle and Plato and Ibn e Siena and John Abraham and worthy etc etc him and worthy etc etc, her might have said a lot about a teacher.  But world is not about being stagnant and not developing and evolving.  As a matter of fact, I believe change in the aristocracy of our orthodox   traditions and breaking free of these clichés is probably exactly the CHANGE … WE NEED. Modern day charms of scientific and technological advancement spread far and wide. Why not use it for the betterment and progress of our education which cuts a sorry figure with rotten old pathetic system of imparting education and assessing theirstrengths.  Oh   no! teachers are better than my own father is like what Alexander said,   alright from today  on wards nobody is bound to respect their daddies, all hail air this and sir that. All hail. Why don’t we allow our kids to go fight like Alexander, probably one of us can get Jerusalem back from Jews? Selah uddin ayubi was not a Harvard graduate I remember…. Or was he? Einstein was told by his teachers he is a straight  dumb and a fool kid … well right now, u owe your life too that stupid dumb fool I guess. No wait, quite a long list of people were brandished  fools and stupid by teachers and now they are Johnny depp,  Marilyn Monroe, Taylor swift, Britney spears, James Cameroon, Pablo  Picasso Walt Disney. Wow! If being such a person is stupidity I would  request myself to be labeled as a stupid by my worthy teachers, maybe I  too can make something out of y life :p  What? Online teacher… he won’t be affectionate, he won’t be ever available, he won’t listen to  your problems, he won’t be a father figure, he won’t answer your  questions, he won’t preach you the hard learned lessons of life, he won’t be able to scold you for your own good and blah and blah … give me a break Mr. President, I guess with such competition around in the market  nobody needs the artificial affection, it’s the concept u get delivered  and the practicality and pragmatic approach to a problem that really  matters and for that I guess there can

be dozens of teachers around the  globe, each perhaps better than the other more qualified than the  other and more experienced than the other. Here I give you evidence. America's most popular teacher doesn't work at Harvard University or a fancy prep school. In fact, he doesn't work in a school at all, but his lessons have been viewed more than 56 million times. Salman Khan, a former hedge fund manager, is the founder of Khan Academy, a free online learning platform with a library of more than 2,300 videos covering everything from basic algebra and differential equations to the Vietnam War. One of his donors just happened to be one of the most important men in the world: Bill Gates. The Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation made a $1.5 million donation to the Academy, and Google donated another $2 million.  "I see Sal Khan as a pioneer in an overall movement to use technology to let more and more people learn things," Gates says in a video posted on the homepage of the Khan Academy website. "It's the start of a revolution." Ranked as the #1 public school in the United States, Berkeley offers podcasts and webcasts of amazing professors lecturing. Each course has an RSS feed so you can track each new lecture. For printable assignments and notes you can check the professor’s homepage, which is usually given in the first lecture or Google his name. Even though the notes, homework and tests are not directly printed in the Berkeley website, as they are in MIT and other courseware sites, it's not a problem to findthem. Johns Hopkins University Bloomberg School of Public Health offers healthbased lecture notes and assignments. You'll find the JHSPH OCW website uses the same familiar navigation structure as MIT OCW. From the creators of Wikipedia, Wikiversity describes itself as being a community seeking to create and use learning materials and activities. Wiki book is also incredibly powerful already containing everything from a detailed guide to learning French to Organic Chemistry and Nanotechnology.  Phew! Stop this vehement opposition I think. It’s high time we start taking a step towards the right future, if not a bright future. Online classes can be fruitful, productive, fertile, rich and prolific if used honestly and with positive attitude. Alright we can’t like really undo the system we live in, we can at least amend it, yeah? And to all my sirs sitting at the back, sir! I really respect all of you and I hope you will keep on serving the nation with the same zeal, a little request, please don’t under rate my questions in the next exams to sort out your vengeance … cheers! Honorable president! My caserests here.
