Story of Change
Pratham* a third-grade student at G.P.S. School in Rajeevgandhi Nagar, UDIPALYA, was initially disinterested in attending school and lacked motivation to learn. He also struggled with socializing with other children and waiting his turn. However, with the help of his teacher, Ms. Tejaswini, Pratham has made remarkable progress in his attitude towards school and learning.
Today, Pratham eagerly comes to school on his own and actively participates in class activities. He has also developed social skills and enjoys spending time with his classmates. Pratham now follows instructions and waits for his turn, showcasing his newfound discipline and patience.
Ms. Tejaswini's guidance and support have helped Pratham realize the importance of education and how it can positively impact his future. His newfound enthusiasm towards learning has transformed him into a confident and enthusiastic student, paving the way for his academic success, with the help of Spastics Society of Karnataka (SSK) and Mindtree Foundation.
