Who is the Greatest Teacher in History?
Chanakya
Chanakya, also known as Vishnu Gupta or Kautilya, was a professor of political science and economics in the ancient Takshashila University.His book “Arthasastra” is one of the earliest books on economics and politics. The “shastras” that are described in his book is relevant even in this modern economy. History says that Chanakya was a guide and mentor to Chandragupta Maurya. This teacher played a huge role in establishing the Maurya rule in the Indian subcontinent.
Confucius
Confucius is regarded as the teacher of all teachers.He was also labeled as the best teacher ever. He was born into a noble family in China.During those times, only the royals and nobility were allowed to learn and that too from government teachers.Confucius was the first private teacher who taught all those who wanted to learn. His teachings and philosophies are called as Confucianism. The teachings of Confucianism include moral conduct, social behavior, and structured life. Confucius’s birthday is celebrated as teacher’s day in China.
Jean Piaget
Jean Piaget revolutionized early childhood education. He was a professor of medieval literature, sociology, and psychology at the University of Neuchâtel. In 1929, he became the director of the International Bureau of Education. According to Piaget’s theory of learning, the role of teachers is to observe more than to transmit information and knowledge. A good teacher needs to observe the child and guide him/her towards knowledge.

Cultures and Traditions
Tradition is the passing of beliefs or behaviors from one generation to the next generation, whereas culture reflects the characteristics that describe a society at a particular time; and the culture is mostly associated with the art forms.
Wikipedia defines tradition as “Tradition is a belief or behavior passed down within a group or society with symbolic meaning or special significance with origins in the past”. The word "tradition" has been derived from the Latin word ‘tradere’ or ‘traderer’, meaning to transmit or to hand-over. As in tradition we are talking about passing of belief or behavior to the next generation; it is clear from this statement that this is to retain these beliefs and behaviors in some or the other form. It reminds of the past as the tradition is related to the things in past and thus the current generation gets the chance to re-connect with the beliefs of the past. Traditions do not remain same forever, they may change or the better term to use in this context is that they evolve.
The word was originally used in Roman law to refer to the concept of inheritance or legal transfers. Later, the meaning of the word evolved but kept the basic attribute of passing on from one to the other. Traditions have a long history, even when they were not written. These traditions were saved orally; sometimes in the form of poems.Traditions include a range of beliefs and behavior. National Anthems and national holidays also are a part of tradition. The tradition can be as simple as saying “thank you”, if it has been passed from the earlier generation to the next. Tradition word is used in connection with various disciplines or fields to indicate the relation of these things with the past. For example, traditional dance has its root in the past. In context to social sciences, modernity is seen as a contrast to the traditions. According to social sciences, the modernization is changing the models of society and thus the traditions are not able to hold importance. In many countries, several steps are taken in order to preserve the traditions
