Abstract

Teaching is aptly synonymous with guiding, nurturing, upbringing and something that is of prime importance so far as teaching in schools is concerned. Portfolio Assessment is one of the tools of alternate evaluation which encourages the process of self-learning and self-evaluation. The paper outlines the significance of teaching in a student’s overall academic growth as well as personality by implication of portfolio assessment. Despite the importance of teaching, the overall outcomes are far from ideal. The present qualitative research aims at constructing a background to analyze why and how teaching at schools can prove as an ice-breaker in a students’ future endeavors.
