In the span of these five years, ever since we started our
English E.Teach project, we have got associated with over a thousand schools
across Maharashtra where our DVDs are being effectively used to teach English.
A lot of their Principals and teachers have come ahead and appreciated our
efforts and the contents of the DVDs. They are surprised by how it has helped
them in making teaching English interesting. But all this would not have been
possible without our team that facilitated this movement. And that’s why we
call them our ‘Facilitators’.
Our Mumbai Facilitators are a young and dedicated team of
ladies who on daily basis interact with the various schools and keep them and
us updated about what is happening. From introducing our program to new schools,
to training the teachers to use the DVDs, to ensuring that the DVDs are being
rightly used–is all taken care of by them with the utmost dedication. We are so
proud to have on board this group who believes in the program as much as we do
and don’t just treat it as a job, but their purpose in life.
Some of these ladies themselves have had Marathi medium
educations and have faced the problems that we are talking about. They often
tell us how for them it is like redemption - By doing this for the children
today, they are making up for their own loss as kids in school who didn’t have
the opportunity to learn good English. And this is what keeps them going more
than anything else. Along with the students and the schools, they are also
evolving – becoming more and more confident about the language and their
communication skills. They learn using
the DVDs as well and are an excellent example of the DVDs efficacy.
This month – we would like to applaud our team. We are a
small family, and we would like to thank these pillars of ours for giving us
their selfless service and keeping us going.
