Dear Madam President

Subject: To spread the joy of learning throughout Indian classrooms

This is regarding the importance of inculcating the joy of learning in today’s generation. Kids spend nearly seven and a half hours in school every day for almost 10 months a year. In this way, they spend more time in school than at home, and school learning profoundly impacts kids.

It will be beneficial to teach joyfully as it also promotes the release of hormones like serotonin and dopamine that regulate happiness levels in humans. In addition to reducing stress, joy keeps kids motivated to learn and enjoy different activities.

As an intern at ‘My Good School’, I realised that my reading, writing and interactive skills have significantly improved. We learn many new things weekly during The Sunday School, which runs from 10:30 am to 12:30 pm.

In my opinion, each child should have access to the joy of learning new things and exploring themselves because learning joyfully and happily is an everlasting process. 

I would like to conclude my letter with a famous quote by Marva Collins, “When someone is taught the joy of learning, it becomes a lifelong process that creates a logical individual. That is the challenge and joy of teaching”.

Yours sincerely,

Yashraj Sharma
Student at Gyanshree School, Noida

Subject: Finding the Joy of Learning and spreading it throughout the nation. 


Dear Madam 

India, once known as 'Sone ki Chidiya', is a unique subcontinent in its prominent stature and dominant presence in Asia. We, citizens of India, proudly claim our nationality worldwide with roots dating back to value systems and life skills. But India then and India now are two poles apart. 


Our forefathers taught us to respect our culture and believe in the power of education; our gurus did not make us puppets memorising information but instead emphasised the practicality of life. Today, we, as inhabitants of modern India, have strayed away from the path of life skills and values to blindly follow Western Civilisation. 


The West has transformed our minds to be just like them, they want India to be a fast-producing machine for jobs that the West needs, but amidst all this, we lose our diversity, culture and essential essence of being Indian. We need to retrieve what we have lost, our education. 


The Indian education system was developed more in ideology than in physiology. Still, the design of the West has inequality and inadequacy and is unsuitable for India, yet we follow the same system daily. Making each individual experience the 'Joy of Learning' should be an educator's motto. 


A classroom is like a garden blooming with flowers. Flowers that are of all different shapes and sizes, colours and fragrances. Each student would be treated like a flower, nurtured with care, watered with love and planted with firmness. The garden oozes with so much learning, education, laughter and love. 


Yours Obediently,
Anvesha Rana,
Student of My Good School and Gyanshree School, Noida
