Teaching someone is a real task as it requires lot of confidence and knowledge about the subject that one teaches. When I met students of government ashram, I felt that they are very much interested in studies and craft work. Their level of studies is as same as any other student studying in state board. I liked that they are studying the books which are of their level i.e. they have been allotted the class according to their age.
Initially I introduced myself to them and made them feel that I am not a teacher instead I am like their sister, who will guide them and enhance their way of thinking and understanding of the knowledge. I am teaching three students, Bushan, Sandeep and Mrunal. Bhushan and Sandeep are in seventh grade and Mrunal is in eighth grade.
After Introduction, I taught them card making through spreading of colors in form of feathers on the middle of the page and then cutting it and pasting it on the card. After making card, Bhushan is having problem in reading so I made him read with me many times and made him understand the meanings of the lesson (natural science).Similarly Sandeep had problem in finding square roots. So I helped him by teaching an easy method of getting square roots .Mrunal was much interested in coloring so, I gave him the paper to color and he enjoyed doing it.
I learned that what are the problem that a student faces and how to deal with that problem, being a guide. I also felt that if we teach them, what they like then they show more interest to it and devote themselves to work more nicely.

Trisha, good reflection but again you have to add a certain background information. Write where the ashram is, the correct and full name of the ashram, who is running it and finally, how the end outcome will be of positive consequences to them. If you can put in at least three to four learning outcomes in each reflection, you would have done a good job and i would be very happy.
