Her own journey has involved navigating different paths in life, ultimately bringing her back to what feels most meaningful; teaching and continuous learning. While working as a home tuition teacher, she realized how fulfilling it is to guide her students, help them grow, and see their progress. That experience reinforced her passion for teaching and her desire to make a difference in children’s lives.

She is committed to help her students build a strong learning foundation, as she understands that many students in community schools are bright and eager but often lack the guidance and encouragement they need. As a Saathi Teacher, she looks forward to guiding her students to build strong learning habits and enjoy the process of learning.

This belief drew her to the Saathi Teachers Programme, where a collective effort is being put together to strengthen primary education and support students in building a strong foundation for learning.
