The instructive process includes the programme of course and other gests offered by teacher ’ collages of seminaries and universities for the purpose of preparing persons for tutoring and other educational service and for contributing to their growth and faculty for similar service. The 12th Five Time Plan of the Government of India states that enhancement in the quality of education isn't possible without investing significantly into perfecting the quality of teaching and teacher. Indeed, we owe it to every child of the country to give education of the loftiest quality. The design for quality teacher education thus needs to be mounted as a charge. Justice Verma Empowerment explosively recommended strengthening teacher education programme in entire India. The quality of education we give to children depends to a large extend upon the quality of teacher we fit into the education system, which in turn depends on the quality of teacher’ medications through teacher education programs. The quality of any educational system depends to large extend upon the quality of educational process, which is determined by the capability, commitment and resourcefulness of teacher. Tutoring profession is a veritably grueling one, as each day and each classroom is a new experience in itself and offers ample opportunities to the teacher for learning through his/ her experience.
