There is another way

eVidyaloka| December 2024

At ZPH Chippada, a small school in Andhra Pradesh, a Class 6 student has become an inspiring symbol of resilience and determination. Born with a challenge that made it difficult to write with her right hand, she faced significant obstacles in her education. However, her life changed when she attended eVidyaloka’s online Math classes taught by Priya, a dedicated Volunteer Teacher who teaches remotely.

Priya’s teaching transcended traditional methods. From her online classroom, she brought warmth, inclusivity, and encouragement, creating an environment where every child felt valued. She quickly noticed the student’s quiet struggle and decided to address it with compassion. Priya’s patient guidance and motivational teaching style fostered a sense of confidence and inclusion in her classroom.

Instead of focusing on limitations, Priya encouraged the student to explore her untapped potential. Inspired by Priya’s unwavering support, the young girl began practicing to write with her left hand—a remarkable challenge that required immense effort and courage.

The process was not easy, but day by day, her left-hand writing improved. Her determination was met with cheers and encouragement from her classmates, who also attended Priya’s engaging online sessions.

“I didn’t know there was another way. I didn’t know I could use my left hand to write.” says the student, with gratitude.

Priya ensured to celebrate every milestone, further inspiring her student to persist.

Today, the student’s story stands as a testament to the transformative power of education and the profound impact of a Volunteer Teacher who believes in their students. Her radiant smile and newfound confidence symbolize her incredible journey of self-discovery and perseverance.

Priya’s work as an online Volunteer Teacher with eVidyaloka highlights the potential of digital education to transform lives in rural India. This story is a powerful reminder that with the right guidance, a nurturing environment, and a determined heart, no challenge is insurmountable.
