I am 59. I retired as Dy. Chief Education Officer Kupwara Kashmir ( J & K School Education Department) in January 2009 after putting in 35 years of service, which includes 31 years as English Teacher at the High School Level. My strength is an inexhaustible penchant for teaching, and love and concern for students. My classroom experience of 35 years makes me feel that I am good at explaining whatever I know. My special area of interest is "Teaching - Learning of Grammar" at any level. I have a Post-graduation Degree in English from J & K university. I have a B.Ed certificate from the same university, too
