I love to teach and for this, you need to learn first, I love to learn and share my knowledge.
Whatever the experience I have either life experience or corporate experience I added both and give a learning experience to students so, that their doubts about the topic and subject will be clear in class only.
I would like to mention a quote from One of my Paper -Pradhan (2014) rightly said that “teachers are nation builders”. They are the architects of modern society and destiny makers of youth. They are the representatives of society who instils moral precepts. In developing countries like India great attention needs to be paid to education and learning, as well as good principles, as no one is more appropriate to support this process than the humble teacher. Without good teachers, both knowledge and morals would suffer (Rajak & Chandra, 2017).
I am currently working as Assistant Professor at Symbiosis Law School, Hyderabad.
Before this, I worked as Assistant Professor at Lovely Prof

PurposeThis study aims to provide a causal framework for teacher burnout (BO) and work engagement (WE) by examining the factors that contribute to it and evaluating how progressive education (PE) affects teachers' performance in Higher education institutions (HEIs).Design/methodology/approachThis study uses a multi-stage sampling technique with the help of computer random generation data from a selected list of teachers. The survey has two sections; the first consisted of a questionnaire of PE, BO, WE and organizational outcomes and the second contained four items to measure the demographic variables. The researcher contacted 745 teachers and asked them to fill up the questionnaire but the authors received only 498 useable responses.FindingsThe results of the study confirmed that moderating role PE reduces the BO of the teachers of HEIs and increases WE. The job demand-resource (JD-R) model was also validated in the Indian context and the model was found suitable for the Indian sample.Research limitations/implicationsThe study has been conducted to manage BO and teachers' engagement in HEIs and the result suggests that the Management of HEIs should value PE characteristics as a crucial component of the educational process. PE encourages academic engagement among professors and students in HEIs.Originality/valueThe study tests the moderating role of PE with the JD-R and the JD-R model in the higher education system in India, which is rarely tested. The study's integrated approach to BO and WE, which provide insight into both viewpoints and aids in employees' poor health.

This article attempted to extend the understanding of burnout and work engagement in teachers in higher educational institutions and to find out probable factors in the Indian context. Data were collected from 60 university teachers through unstructured questionnaires. Out of those 60 teachers, 33 were selected for follow up interviews. Inductive content analysis was used for data analysis using a CAQDAS package named ATLAS.ti 7. Five new factors from the Indian context emerged out from this study, that is, interaction with students, teaching methods, flexible timing and long break, unnecessary rules and regulations, and better HR policies. These factors could be the input towards future studies in academic development as well as for employee well-being and productivity.
