Sahayog: Comments Of Appreciation
Of Our School Programme
|
"I write this to record my personal gratitude and that
of my colleagues and students for the extremely enlightening
and enriching experience provided by you and your colleagues
at the two-day workshop on mathematics during the period Dec
5-6, 2003.
|
The workshop was of great benefit to the more than 120 students
and teachers that participating. For the first time they were
able to gain insight into a very subtle part of mathematics
that was rightly termed by you as the 'gateway to the calculus'.
I look forward to more such workshops and in fact I shall be
quite keen to offer the premises of the school to be used as
a base for the school related activities of the Foundation for
children that reside in this part of Delhi."

"We would like to thank you for your invaluable help
in organizing the Mathematics workshop at Vasant Valley School.
The workshop was both apt and appropriate in terms of the utility
of the concepts in the classroom. The concepts dealt with in
the workshop were simplified and graded which made it easy for
students to grasp. Both students and teachers benefited immensely
from the workshop."
- Head of Mathematics Dept.-Vasant Valley School

" This workshop is one of the best things I have ever
faced till now. Truly I think it has been very much able to
curb my fear of the topic sets and functions. It is very much
different from classroom teaching as I was able to interact
with the teachers more openly and get my doubts cleared. I haven't
learnt any new concepts but I have learnt the concepts in a
more intelligent way. I would definitely like to attend more
workshops like this. The workshop was wonderful and I enjoyed
it too the fullest."

" The workshop was great, brilliant and it should have
been longer. The hands-on practice sessions were very interesting.
More such workshops should be held."
- D.V.,
Class XI, Vasant Valley School
|
" The workshop was very useful and different from classroom
teaching because multimedia was used making it easier for us
to understand. Also, since there were many teachers the experience
was different. Thank you all very much. The workshop was extremely
stimulating and the worksheets were quite challenging, especially
the starred questions."
- Y.V., Class XII,
Vasant Valley School
|
" The workshop was extremely interesting. It helped to
clear basic concepts. It was very different from classroom teaching
and thank God for that, you learn so much better with interactive
presentations and things like that. Visuals really help you
retain concepts for future appreciation. I would definitely
like to attend a similar workshop."
- S.S.,
Class XII, Vasant Valley School

" I learnt how to tackle difficult problems easily. This
workshop was very interesting and useful. What excited us most
was that we met such good teachers."
- A.K.,
Class XI, S. D. Public School
|
" It was definitely different from our regular classes
because concepts were given a higher priority than solving equations.
This would help us not only in exams but in our future classes
too."
- Y.K., Class XI, Sanskriti School
|
" The workshop was different as more time was devoted
to every topic and emphasis was on learning the basics and not
just solving questions."
- R.P., Class XI,
Sanskriti School
|
" The workshop helped us a lot to learn many trivial
concepts of great importance, which we ignored in the classes
held in schools. It was different as it was learning through
communication. We invite the idea of such workshops and would
be grateful if the foundation could hold a similar workshop
in our school.
- S.S., Class XI, St. Margaret Sr.
Sec. School
|
" The workshop was a wonderful experience. It helped
to clarify the concepts on functions. There was more attention
on students as the number of teachers was more. We got to know
about the talent and nature of the teachers who teach us in
schools."
- S.H., Class XI, St. Margaret Sr.
Sec. School
|
" I really appreciated this sort of an arrangement. Dr.
Dinesh Singh's lectures were enlightening. It was very different
from classroom teaching. I would definitely like to attend another
similar kind of a workshop."
- A.S., Class
XII, S.D. Public School
|
" To a large extent the workshop was very interesting.
The questions were stimulating and testing. It was useful in
picking up abstract concepts of functions in an intuitive way.
The multimedia use and the interaction with the faculty and
students was unique and new experience. Thanks for 3 challenging
days."
- A.K., Class XII, Vasant Valley School
|
" The workshop introduces us to Calculus. It was very
different from regular teaching style, as it was more of a lecture
style without regular exercise. The personalized attention was
well appreciated."
