Teachers are some of the people who leave an impression on our lives long after we have left the classroom. They do so much more than teach lessons out of a textbook. They give us encouragement when we doubt ourselves, push us to do better, and celebrate those small wins along the way. Most of us can name at least one teacher years later who believed in us, inspired us or changed our perspective on something.

That’s what makes teacher’s day so great. This is a moment to thank the teachers, mentors and professors who have made such a difference in our lives. Think about the bollywood movie Taare Zameen Par, where a teacher sees a child's struggles and takes the time to understand him. Those small moments are the ones that stay with us in real life, too. It could have been a teacher who spent the time after class patiently explaining a difficult maths problem, or who encouraged you when you were about to give up. These moments may seem little at that time but can mean so much in years to come.

So why not say thanks with a thoughtful gift? Flowers and chocolates are always appreciated but if you want something they can keep and enjoy for years, silver jewellery makes a lovely choice. A pretty piece can be a small reminder of your appreciation, making a simple thank you into something they can truly treasure.
