VFC Volunteers' Voices

"I assure you that I will do everything possible to keep him (Siddharth, her student, who is interested in science) excited about the learning sessions and that the lesson plan delivers all the important goals that I will plan in advance for him. I am so glad to be a part of this beautiful journey." - Apeksha Bagga

"I have a terrific feeling being part of this endeavour. It is probably one of the most positive stories of covid-19 to be able to use technology and reach those children who are underserved and spread out whatever good we can. Though the project started out as an experiment but can lead the way and lot of people and educators could learn out of this experiment." - Rishabh Ratnu

"Rotational symmetry was a little difficult for Shalu to understand but we cut shapes from paper and then rotated them, making it a concrete concept easier to understand. She made a good effort doing her worksheets; we discussed the answers and in case some corrections need to be done." - Anisha Tandon

"I have found Kajal to be very enthusiastic and eager to learn. Even her father was quite encouraging. We discussed her likes / dislikes. She loves English and Maths and is not very fond of Hindi." - Archana Khosla

"Sameer is very cooperative & takes interest in all sessions. Full cooperation from his mother's side. His homework is always done timely." - Sangeeta Sharma
