Since my childhood, I have been taught that sharing is caring. I have been taught to share my toys, chocolates and other possessions with my siblings and friends. My parents have always taught me that by sharing you get not only the blessings, but you move towards becoming a better human being.
I joined Alliance Francaise in level A 1.1. the year ………. Before that I was learning French through informal tuition. My parents always guided me that a foreign language is an important facet of having an international career and globalising your thoughts and actions. Gradually I became comfortable in French and can now read and write with ease. I am currently studying at A 2.3. level.
I always felt like sharing this knowledge with my siblings, but my youngster brother is five years old and was not interested in learning it from me. During my summer vacation, my father took me to an NGO named ‘Shikshalya’. This NGO rescues poor children (including rag pickers) and helps them by imparting education. I felt very inspired after meeting these children and got an opportunity to share my knowledge with them
I was initially thrilled as well as timid with the idea of teaching these children. Some of them are in higher classes (10th) and I am only studying in seventh. My parents have motivated me. I am taking their regular sessions. I am amazed by these results. The children are enthusiastic about learning French and I am astonished by the results.
I feel humbled and lucky that I got this opportunity to share whatever little I know. My brother Saahir is also motivated and willing to learn French from me. I am thankful to the Almighty for blessing me with this opportunity to hone my skills, to begin with my humble initiatives.
