Rina from Bhadrak married at a very early age but continued studying even after marriage and completed her graduation in Political Science.
She always wanted to be a teacher but could not pursue a career due to personal reasons. Rina, who joined the ThinkZone fellowship in early 2020 and is currently supporting 31 children at one of our partner schools says, “I was told to remember everything by heart at my school without asking any questions, which I found stifling.
I always had doubts but was scared of ridicule by teachers. Children learn best when they enquire and ask questions and the modules covered during the fellowship training covered these aspects in a simple manner. Also, the different learning activities present on the ThinkZone app are really effective and have helped me a lot in devising new games for children for making them understand arithmetic concepts.”
