Niru Dhami from Darchula is currently pursuing her Bachelor in Education and brings hands-on experience as an Assistant Teacher at Siphal Academy. She has also had the opportunity to work with children from diverse backgrounds, including differently-abled students, shaping her belief that classrooms must embrace every learner’s needs.
Raised in an environment where kindness was a way of life, Niru grew up watching her father teach as a profession. His dedication, and the respect he earned from his students deeply inspired her. As a child, she dreamed of becoming a teacher like him. Although life briefly pulled her away from that dream, stepping into a classroom years later brought it rushing back. She rediscovered how much she loved helping others learn and how happy she felt around young minds.
Niru’s own school memories continue to shape her mindset, especially the confidence she built when teachers genuinely cared and made learning joyful. That experience now guides her as a Saathi Teacher, where she is especially motivated to work in rural schools and understand her students’ daily lives, their realities, and the challenges they navigate. She believes that even making a small difference in a child’s life is a meaningful achievement. For her, this journey is not only about guiding students toward growth but also about growing alongside them.
