Valery Falkov congratulated university teachers on their professional holiday

Dear colleagues, dear friends!

Today we celebrate Higher School Teacher’s Day!

This is still young, but already a well-known professional holiday. It is celebrated not only by teachers, but also by many of those who keep gratitude to their mentors in their hearts.

Keeping tradition alive is like keeping a fire going. And this is precisely the mission of the teacher. In ensuring the continuity of generations, in preserving scientific schools, in educating our students, transferring to them professional experience, wisdom, high ethical principles, in strengthening the unity of our country at the cultural and value level.

With timely advice, care, your own example, your intellectual honesty and thirst for knowledge, you set a high bar for millions of young people, helping them discover their talents and find a path in life.

It is you — in classrooms, educational laboratories, lectures and seminars, that shape the future of our country, its technological leadership, day after day.

You understand better than others that teaching is very difficult. Not everyone can be a good teacher. This requires great mental strength, broad erudition, and high professionalism. Therefore, teaching work has always been and remains honorable.

Dear friends! I congratulate you on the occasion! I wish you worthy students, new personal professional victories, creative inspiration in your work! Be healthy and happy!
