Wonderful change

I am extremely happy to see the way school-going children approach their studies these days.  They are very confident about their concept. Teaching methodology and tools of learning have also improved a lot. I have always found students showing keen interest for learning these days. Even teachers of today behave like friends and this makes students very confident. Here in the UAE, schools pay utmost attention to all-round development of children from the very beginning. That's why students these days decide themselves what they want to do in future.

They know their strengths and weaknesses very well. They share their dreams and aspirations with parents very early in life and they go for it. During our time in 90s, we were clueless. We did not know what to do in future.  We lacked confidence and clarity. We did not know which streams shall we go for, so we would seek guidance from our parents. We did not know our strengths and weaknesses until we reach college stage. But I like the way system of education has evolved with the advent of technology these days.  I must appreciate teaching communities for their unconditional effort.  They put their heart and soul to make a lesson looks easy and interesting for their students.
