Teacher's Day 2017: Genuine And Funny Tributes For Teachers Light Up Twitter

New Delhi: Long before Twitter, Instagram and Facebook took over, children flocked to schools on Teacher's Day to honor their teachers. Even those who derived pleasure in skipping classes would turn up neatly on this day to class and play their part in making a teacher feel special. But things have changed now. School children still organize small programmes for their beloved teachers and bring them hand written notes and cards to convey their gratitude, but Teacher's Day is made all the more special by the long forgotten students who reach out to their teachers through social media and express their gratitude.

While Facebook is full of personal messages with teachers being credited for an individual's success, Twitter is full of genuine, sometimes funny tweets about teachers and teacher's day. 

This one tweeter has not forgotten the man who inspired millions.
 

The best teachers teach from the heart, not from the book😇✌

Happy #TeachersDay 😇🙏 pic.twitter.com/Za2GWHrNr7

There might be just one day dedicated to teachers but the knowledge they bestow upon us remains forever, sometimes in the form of nostalgic memories and sometimes in the form of sarcastic and humorous takes on life as is apparent from the tweets above.
