Well, it is undoubtedly true that working is necessary in everyone’s life in order to earn a livelihood. Even though I am familiar with a number of professions like doctors, engineers, nurses and many more, but here I would like to talk about a particular job that my grandmother did in her young age. The job I am referring to was teaching. She was a teacher in the primary school in our local area and she used to teach students subjects like science, math, geography. For her teaching career, she was immensely popular in our society. She chose this career because she finds it challenging and exciting as she really likes to take challenges in her life. If I had to talk about if teaching was only her profession, no. Actually, teaching was not her only profession. She was also a chairman and she really wanted to shape the future of this village. She worked attentively for a better establishment. She did some remarkable achievements in her young age. She established some educational institutions like Mathur Shah School, College and many more. She also established a training center where people usually still now go to learn some skills like computer skills, automobile engineering and many more. When it comes to how I felt about her, I really fell over the moon and I had a deep respect for her. On top of that, she is one of my biggest impressions in my life. I have learned many things from her. All in all, that is the job that my grandmother did in her young age.
