Join Debpriya Das as she challenges the myth that teaching marks the end of a professional career, recounting a personal journey of teaching in Bangladesh long before beginning college.

This Talk aims to inspire individuals to reconsider the conventional career timeline, showcasing the profound impact of early engagement in education.
Debpriya Das recently graduated from Northeastern University's MBA program and is currently pursuing pre-medicine studies at Columbia University. She has an international academic background with a Bachelor's Degree in Neuroscience from the National University of Singapore and the University of Melbourne, and a Master's Degree in Global Affairs from China's Tsinghua University. Debpriya stands out as the first Bangladeshi to receive the Schwarzman Scholarship and has been recognized with esteemed accolades including Northeastern's Huntington 100 and the Women Who Empower Innovator Award. Above all, she is recognized as an accomplished biology teacher and is the founder of Bioland, her own coaching center. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx

অনেক ভালোবাসা নিও দেবপ্রিয়া। পশ্চিমবঙ্গ, ভারত থেকে তোমাকে শুনছি। দারুন লাগলো কথাগুলো। আমিও এক জন টিচার। কলেজ লাইফ থেকে পার্ট টাইম টিউসন করতে শুরু করি কিন্তু খুব একটা সিরিয়াস ছিলাম না এতদিন। এখন একটা চাকরি করছি, আজকে তোমাকে শুনে আবার ইন্সপায়ার হলাম। Last line ," so if there is one thing you want to take away from my story, I hope that you feel inspired to teach" was ❤ And I want to say you that yes I felt inspired by your story and I'm gonna take teaching seriously. Thank you ❤

Thanks for continuing updates. I'd rather trade the stock market as it's more profitable. I make an average of $30,100 per week even though I barely trade myself.
