When Aaradhya joined our classes, she would whisper her answers and avoid reading aloud. Today she writes her own stories and presented one on stage at our Show Day. We asked her mother what made the difference.
“She always had ideas. What she needed was a place where it was safe to share them.”
The first few months
Aaradhya started in a small batch where every child takes turns. Her teacher gave her short, low-pressure roles first — reading one line, describing a picture, choosing the next story.
Finding her voice through writing
Writing gave her time to think. Weekly prompts slowly became longer stories, and her teacher began asking her to read just the first paragraph aloud.
What her parents did at home
- Listened to every story without correcting it first
- Kept a notebook just for her stories
- Celebrated effort, not marks
Today
Her story now appears in “Whispers from Young Minds”, our student anthology. She wants to be an author — and a teacher.
