Today we remember our teachers, who have not only shaped our careers, but lives also. Teachers dedicate themselves selflessly to make students’ dreams come true.

Prof. Harimohan Pillai, who is an architect and a teacher himself, pays a sketchy tribute to his favourite teachers and remembers how they helped him become what he is today.
