Here Is Why My Mother Is My Best Teacher

There is no denying that our most significant role models in life are our mothers. From the time we are born, she takes care of us, nurtures us, and keeps us safe. A mother is the one who teaches us values and inculcates good habits in us. For the first few years of a child’s life, mothers are their first teachers. They learn how to talk and walk and also learn important life lessons.

When kids start going to school, teachers take up this role, but mothers will always be the primary teachers. So, with Teacher’s Day coming up, let’s look at why mothers make the best teachers:
