I would just focus on studying and doing well and take part in a few competitions but in the ninth standard when the supervisor of my school chose me to be the head girl of the school and I told sir that I don't think that I am ready for it. Sir told me that he believed in me that I would do well. And it's from there that I now have gained confidence and now become a teacher.]]> 2021-06-11 05:51:54 UTC https://padlet.com/kalpana11learning/9nqzzht3pliehkp9/wish/1600444532 my sister has a child who is autistic and she has gone through a transformation helping her child to deal with it better. https://padlet.com/kalpana11learning/9nqzzht3pliehkp9/wish/1600448741 nandini]]> 2021-06-11 05:54:46 UTC https://padlet.com/kalpana11learning/9nqzzht3pliehkp9/wish/1600448741 Valentina https://padlet.com/kalpana11learning/9nqzzht3pliehkp9/wish/1600455923 The decision to become a teacher was a cannon ball moment for me since before that I always wanted to do something either in aviation or travel but a period of sickness and coincidentally the  summer classes in church organised at the same time helped me realise what I really wanted to do and what actually gives me happiness.]]> 2021-06-11 05:59:19 UTC https://padlet.com/kalpana11learning/9nqzzht3pliehkp9/wish/1600455923 https://padlet.com/kalpana11learning/9nqzzht3pliehkp9/wish/1600458996 Monica Rose
Not very dramatic but gradual
Awareness of students who are differently abled
This inspired me  to evolve as a teacher to be more creative, empathatic, effective and inclusive]]> 2021-06-11 06:01:29 UTC https://padlet.com/kalpana11learning/9nqzzht3pliehkp9/wish/1600458996
