Nisha Tamang is pursuing B.Ed in Mathematics, amongst the 5th cohort of Saathi Teachers currently working at Shree Nanadaladevi Basic School.She feels that the purpose of her life is to inspire and teach children about the beauty of Maths. This stems from her experience as a student who was positively impacted by her own Maths teacher, which made her eager to impart this desire for education into those in more rural areas where opportunities are fewer. She found that the Saathi teachers programme vision aligns with her long-term goals.
She sees education as a tool for social change and believes that every child deserves quality learning experience regardless of background. She found various challenges while teaching. However, being able to witness students gain confidence and to have aspirations is very empowering for her.
