Arijit with his eager student Saniya |
The pitter patter of tiny feet in the LRC
was a rather unexpected (and pleasant!) departure from the usual bunch of
deadline crazed PGP students. For this day marked the start of Net Impact’s
brand new initiative “Chalo Padhe” at the Mohali campus of ISB. Six children,
ranging in age from three to sixteen, were given lessons and home-work support
(English and Math seemed to be the popular subjects) by our volunteer teachers.
The Net Impact hopes to host a total of sixteen children in the next few months!

Imran makes Little Karthik feel at home |
“Chalo Padhe” is the precious new baby of the
Net Impact Club and very close to our hearts. As the president, Shruti Sharma,
insists, the club’s impact must start right at home first—through a weekend
school for the bright children of staff members working tirelessly around us. As
for the teachers, fortunately, ISB is home to many talented professionals not
only in its student pool but amongst its teaching assistants, administrative
staff and spouses.
So if on a Sunday, you find yourself bored
or want a small diversion or perhaps just need that fix from a dose of
self-less work, come by and see these curious minds in action. Perhaps we could
compel you to be a part-time teacher with us.. for just two hours of your time
can leave a lasting impression!
Kshiteesh, a volunteer says:
"Interacting with underprivileged kids teaches you how they have to fight for even the ordinary things that we take for granted. Deeply sobering experience."
